26 But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
But ye, not so: but he that is great among you, must be as the least; and he that is chief, as the servitor.
27 For whether [is] greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? [is] not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

But he denied, and said: Woman, I have not known him.
58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
And a little after, another person saw him, and said to him: Thou too art one of them. And Cephas said: I am not.
59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this [fellow] also was with him: for he is a Galilæan.
And an hour after, another contended and said: Certainly, this man also was with him, for he likewise is a Galilean.
60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
Cephas said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was speaking, the cock crew.

67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

68 And if I also ask [you], ye will not answer me, nor let [me] go.
And if I should ask you, ye will not return me an answer; nor will ye release me.
