Matthew 26:69-75
========================
69Now Peter was sitting out
in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. “You also were with Jesus of
Galilee,” she said.
70But he denied it before
them all. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said.
71Then he went out to the
gateway, where another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This
fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
72He denied it again, with an
oath: “I don’t know the man!”
73After a little while, those
standing there went up to Peter and said, “Surely you are one of them; your
accent gives you away.”
74Then he began to call down
curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately a rooster
crowed.
75Then Peter remembered the
word Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will disown me three
times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.
