Mk 14:31a ... But with great vigor he was saying, ... "Even if I need to die for you, by no means will I deny you."

Verse 31 has four phrases and 18 words. The first three phrases have these 4 text and 9 dialog words ... Ho de ekperissōs elalei, Ean deēi me sunapothanein soi, ou mē se aparnēsomai (The but with great vigor he was saying, ... "If it is neccessary (for) me to die for you, no by means you will I deny").

The 13 words are bottom up. The two words "ekperissōs elalei" (with great vigor he was saying) are tangent to Simon the Stone. The adverb "ekperissos," comes from ek (out), peri (around), perissos (emphasis, vigor) which describes any word touching a 4440 circle. When Simon says he would even die if needed for Jesus, that changes the color of his Stone and hour glass to black. The Stone's prophesied three denials roundly fill his response with 3x3 words."
