Peter Denies Jesus

Luke 22

54 b Having arrested Him, they led Him and brought Him into the high priest's house. c But Peter followed at a distance. 55 d Now when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them. 56 And a certain servant girl, seeing him as he sat by the fire, looked intently at him and said, "This man was also with Him." 57 But he denied 1 Him, saying, "Woman, I do not know Him." 58 e And after a little while another saw him and said, "You also are of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not!" 59 f Then after about an hour had passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, "Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a g Galilean." 60 But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are saying!" Immediately, while he was still speaking, 2 the rooster crowed. 61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then h Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, i "Before the rooster 3 crows, you will deny Me three times." 62 So Peter went out and wept bitterly.
