Simon

And Jesus walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers).

And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother lying, and sick of a fever;

And the names of the twelve Apostles are these: The first, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother,

And Peter making answer, said: Lord, if it be thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters.

And he said: Come. And Peter going down out of the boat walked upon the water to come to Jesus.

And Peter answering, said to him: Expound to us this parable.

Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God.

And Jesus answering said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.

And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

And Peter taking him, began to rebuke him, saying: Lord, be it far from thee, this shall not be unto thee.

Who turning, said to Peter: Go behind me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.

And after six days Jesus taketh unto him Peter and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart:

And Peter answering, said to Jesus: Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

He said: Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying: What is thy opinion, Simon? The kings of the earth, of whom do they receive tribute or custom, of their own children, or of strangers?

And he said: Of strangers. Jesus said to him: Then the children are free.

But that we may not scandalize them, go to the sea, and cast in a hook: and that fish which shall first come up, take: and when thou hast opened it's mouth, thou shalt find a stater: take that, and give it to them for me and thee.

Then came Peter unto him and said: Lord, how often shall my brother offend against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

Then Peter answering, said to him: Behold we have left all things, and have followed thee: what therefore shall we have?

And Peter answering, said to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, I will never be scandalized.

Peter saith to him: Yea, though I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner said all the disciples.

And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to grow sorrowful and to be sad.

And he cometh to his disciples and findeth them asleep. And he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?

And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high priest, And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the end.

But Peter sat without in the court. And there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.

And after a little while, they came that stood by and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them. For even thy speech doth discover thee.
