15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, with another disciple, who being known to the high priest, was admitted into his palace at the same time with Jesus, 16 whilst Peter stood without at the door, but that other disciple, who was known to the high priest went out, and spoke to her that kept the door, who let Peter in. 17 then said the damsel, that kept the door, to Peter, are you also one of this man's disciples? I am not, said he. 18 now the servants and officers that were there, had made a coal-fire, for it was cold, to warm themselves: and Peter stood warming himself among them. 19 In the mean time, the high priest having question'd Jesus about his disciples, and his doctrine. 20 Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I was continually teaching in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither all the Jews resort, and in secret have I said nothing. 21 why do you question me? ask those who heard me, what discourse I had with them: they know very well what I said. 22 Upon his expressing himself thus, one of the officers there present, struck Jesus on the face, saying, answerest thou the high priest so? 23 Jesus replied, if I have said any thing injurious, show then wherein; but if I said right, why do you smite me? 24 now Annas had sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest. 25 as Simon Peter then stood there warming himself: they said to him, art not thou also one of his disciples? which he denied, and said, I am not. 26 one of the servants of the high priest, kinsman to him whose ear Peter struck off, said, did not I see thee in the garden with him? 27 but Peter denied this too, and immediately the cock crew.
