Simon

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which he had said: Before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice. And going forth, he wept bitterly.

And passing by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, casting nets into the sea for they were fishermen.

And immediately going out of the synagogue they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

And to Simon he gave the name Peter:

And he admitted not any man to follow him, but Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

Then he saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Peter answering said to him: Thou art the Christ.

And he spoke the word openly. And Peter taking him began to rebuke him.

Who turning about and seeing his disciples, threatened Peter, saying: Go behind me, Satan, because thou savourest not the things that are of God but that are of men.

And his garments became shining and exceeding white as snow, so as no fuller upon earth can make white.

For he knew not what he said: for they were struck with fear.

And Peter began to say unto him: Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee.

And Peter remembering, said to him: Rabbi, behold the fig tree which thou didst curse is withered away.

And as he sat on the mount of Olivet over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart:

But Peter saith to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, yet not I.

And he taketh Peter and James and John with him: and he began to fear and to be heavy.

And he cometh and findeth them sleeping. And he saith to Peter: Simon, sleepest thou? Couldst thou not watch one hour?

And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the high priest. And he sat with the servants at the fire and warmed himself.

Now when Peter was in the court below, there cometh one of the maidservants of the high priest.

And when she had seen Peter warming himself looking on him, she saith: Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

But he denied again. And after a, while they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a Galilean.

And immediately the cock crew again. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had said unto him: Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me. And he began to weep,

But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee. There you shall see him, as he told you.

Now when he had ceased to speak, he said to Simon: Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a draught.

And Simon answering said to him: Master, we have laboured all the night and have taken nothing: but at thy word I will let down the net.
