Then Peter said<n id="1" /> to him, &#8220;Look,<n id="2" /> we have left everything to follow you!<n id="3" /> What then will there be for us?&#8221;

Peter said to him, &#8220;Even if I must die with you, I will never deny you.&#8221; And all the disciples said the same thing.p>

Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He<n id="1" /> said to Peter, &#8220;So, couldn&#8217;t you stay awake with me for one hour?

But Peter was following him from a distance, all the way to the high priest&#8217;s courtyard. After<n id="1" /> going in, he sat with the guards<n id="2" /> to see the outcome.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A<n id="1" /> slave girl<n id="2" /> came to him and said, &#8220;You also were with Jesus the Galilean.&#8221;

Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said: &#8220;Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.&#8221; And he went outside and wept bitterly.<n id="1" />p>

He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James,<n id="1" /> and John, the brother of James.

He asked them, &#8220;But who do you say that I am?&#8221; Peter answered him,<n id="1" /> &#8220;You are the Christ.&#8221;<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">So<n id="1" /> while he was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John,<n id="2" /> and Andrew asked him privately,

Then<n id="1" /> he came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, &#8220;Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn&#8217;t you stay awake for one hour?

When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked directly at him and said, &#8220;You also were with that Nazarene, Jesus.&#8221;

But he denied it again. A short time later the bystanders again said to Peter, &#8220;You must be<n id="1" /> one of them, because you are also a Galilean.&#8221;

But go, tell his disciples, even Peter, that he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.&#8221;

But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus&#8217; knees, saying, &#8220;Go away from me, Lord,<n id="1" /> for I am a sinful man!&#8221;<n id="2" />

Then<n id="1" /> he said to them, &#8220;But who do you say that I am?&#8221; Peter<n id="2" /> answered,<n id="3" /> &#8220;The Christ<n id="4" /> of God.&#8221;

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> about eight days<n id="2" /> after these sayings, Jesus<n id="3" /> took with him Peter, John, and James, and went up the mountain to pray.

Then<n id="1" /> a little later someone else<n id="2" /> saw him and said, &#8220;You are one of them too.&#8221; But Peter said, &#8220;Man,<n id="3" /> I am not!&#8221;

But Peter said, &#8220;Man, I don&#8217;t know what you&#8217;re talking about!&#8221; At that moment,<n id="1" /> while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two disciples who heard what John said<n id="1" /> and followed Jesus.<n id="2" />

<p class="bodytext">Simon Peter said to him, &#8220;Lord, where are you going?&#8221; Jesus replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;Where I am going, you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.&#8221;
