Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly. ¹ 

He asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered him, ¹  “You are the Christ.” ² 

So ¹  while he was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, ²  and Andrew asked him privately,

So Peter went down ¹  to the men and said, “Here I am, ²  the person you’re looking for. Why have you come?”

So Peter was kept in prison, but those in the church were earnestly ¹  praying to God for him. ²
