²⁸ And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto the upon the waters.

³ For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think as to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to each man a measure of faith.

³¹ Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat:

³² but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou hast turned again, establish thy brethren.

³³ And he said unto him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death.

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

²⁷ Then answered Peter and said unto him, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee; what then shall we have?

³³ But Peter answered and said unto him, If all shall be offended in thee, I will never be offended.

³⁴ Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, that this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

³⁵ Peter saith unto him, Even if I must die with thee, `yet' will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

⁴⁹ And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear.

⁶⁸ Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

³⁶ Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered, Whither I go, thou canst not follow now; but thou shalt follow afterwards.

³⁷ Peter saith unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee even now? I will lay down my life for thee.

³⁸ Jesus answereth, Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

³¹ But he spake exceedingly vehemently, If I must die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner also said they all.
