John 1:38-42

38And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you seeking?” They said to Him, “1Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?” 39He said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they came and saw where He was staying, and they stayed with Him that day; it was about the 2tenth hour. 40 3One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. 41He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the 4Messiah” (which translated means 5Christ). 42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of 6 7John; you shall be called 8Cephas” (which is translated 9 10Peter).
