26 But you not so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is the leader, as he that serveth.	26 But it must not be so with you. Instead, whoever is greater among you, let him become the lesser. And whoever is the leader, let him become the server.
27 For which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? Is it not he that sitteth at table? But I am in the midst of you, as he that serveth:	27 For who is greater: he who sits at table, or he who serves? Is not he who sits at table? Yet I am in your midst as one who serves.
28 And you are they who have continued with me in my temptations:	28 But you are those who have remained with me during my trials.
29 And I dispose to you, as my Father hath disposed to me, a kingdom;	29 And I dispose to you, just as my Father has disposed to me, a kingdom,
30 That you may eat and drink at my table, in my kingdom: and may sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.	30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and so that you may sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

34 And he said: I say to thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, till thou thrice deniest that thou knowest me. And he said to them:	34 And he said, “I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you have three times denied that you know me.” And he said to them,
35 When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, did you want anything?	35 “When I sent you without money or provisions or shoes, did you lack anything?”
36 But they said: Nothing. Then said he unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip; and he that hath not, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword.	36 And they said, “Nothing.” Then he said to them: “But now, let whoever has money take it, and likewise with provisions. And whoever does not have these, let him sell his coat and buy a sword.
37 For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reckoned.

53 When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.	53 When I was with you each day in the temple, you did not extend your hands against me. But this is your hour and that of the power of darkness.”

57 But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not.	57 But he denied him by saying, “Woman, I do not know him.”
58 And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not.	58 And after a little while, another one, seeing him, said, “You also are one of them.” Yet Peter said, “O man, I am not.”
59 And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him; for he is also a Galilean.	59 And after the interval of about one hour had passed, someone else affirmed it, saying: “Truly, this one also was with him. For he is also a Galilean.”
60 And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew.	60 And Peter said: “Man, I do not know what you are saying.” And at once, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
61 And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.	61 And the Lord turned around and looked at Peter.

67 And he saith to them: If I shall tell you, you will not believe me.	67 And he said to them: “If I tell you, you will not believe me.
68 And if I shall also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go.	68 And if I also question you, you will not answer me. Neither will you release me.
69 But hereafter the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.	69 But from this time, the Son of man will be sitting at the right hand of the power of God.”
