Matthew 26:69-75

MNT(i) 69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one of the maidservants came up to him and said, "You also were with Jesus, the Galilean!" 70 But he denied it before them all; "I do not know what you mean," he said. 71 Soon afterward he went out into the porch, and another maid saw him, and said to those who were there, "This fellow certainly was with Jesus, the Nazarene!" 72 And again he denied it with an oath, saying, "I never knew the man." 73 A little later the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "You also are certainly one of them, for your speech betrays you." 74 Then he began to curse and swear, saying, "I never knew the man." Immediately the cock crew! 75 Then Peter recalled the word that Jesus had spoken, "Before the cock crow, you shall three times deny me"—and he went out and broke out into bitter weeping.
