69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and 1 one maid came up to him and said, You were also with Jesus the Galilean! 70 But he denied it 2 falsely before them all, saying, I do not know what you mean. 71 And when he had gone out to the porch, another maid saw him, and she said to the bystanders, This fellow was with Jesus the Nazarene! 72 And again he denied it and 3 disowned Him with an oath, saying, I do not know the Man! 73 After a little while, the bystanders came up and said to Peter, You certainly are one of them too, for even your accent betrays you. 74 Then Peter began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, I do not even know the Man! And at that moment a rooster crowed. 75 And Peter remembered Jesus' words, when He had said, Before a 4 single rooster crows, you will deny and disown Me three times. And he went outside and wept bitterly.
