Simon

Then Peter remembred the wordes of Iesus, which had sayde vnto him, Before the cocke crowe thou shalt denie me thrise. So he went out, and wept bitterly.

And as he walked by the sea of Galile, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, (for they were fishers.)

And assoone as they were come out of the Synagogue, they entred into the house of Symon and Andrew, with Iames and Iohn.

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

And the first was Simon, and hee named Simon, Peter,

And he suffered no man to follow him saue Peter and Iames, and Iohn the brother of Iames.

And he said vnto them, But whome say ye that I am? Then Peter answered, and saide vnto him, Thou art that Christ.

And he spake that thing boldly. Then Peter tooke him aside, and began to rebuke him.

Then he turned backe, and looked on his disciples, and rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behinde me, Satan: for thou vnderstandest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.

And sixe dayes after, Iesus taketh vnto him Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and carieth them vp into an hie mountaine out of the way alone, and his shape was changed before them.

Then Peter answered, and said to Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here: let vs make also three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

Then Peter began to say vnto him, Loe, we haue forsaken all, and haue folowed thee.

Then Peter remembred, and said vnto him, Master, beholde, the figge tree which thou cursedst, is withered.

And as he sate on the mount of Oliues, ouer against the Temple, Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and Andrew asked him secretly,

And Peter saide vnto him, Although all men should be offended at thee, yet would not I.

And hee tooke with him Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and hee began to be troubled, and in great heauinesse,

Then hee came, and founde them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watche one houre?

And Peter folowed him afarre off, euen into the hall of the hie Priest, and sate with the seruants, and warmed himselfe at the fire.

And as Peter was beneath in the hal, there came one of the maides of the hie Priest.

And when shee sawe Peter warming him selfe, shee looked on him, and sayde, Thou wast also with Iesus of Nazareth.

But hee denied it againe: and anon after, they that stoode by, sayde againe to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art of Galile, and thy speach is like.

Then the seconde time the cocke crewe, and Peter remembred the woorde that Iesus had saide vnto him, Before the cocke crowe twise, thou shalt denie me thrise, and waying that with himselfe, he wept.

But goe your way, and tell his disciples, and Peter, that he will goe before you into Galile: there shall ye see him, as he said vnto you.

Now when he had left speaking, he sayd vnto Simon, Lanch out into the deepe, and let downe your nettes to make a draught.

Then Simon answered, and sayd vnto him, Master, we haue trauailed sore all night, and haue taken nothing: neuerthelesse at thy worde I will let downe the net.
