Luke 22:56-62 ▼

56 Then a slave girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight, stared at him and said, |This man was with him too!|

57 But Peter denied it: |Woman, I don't know him!|

58 Then a little later someone else saw him and said, |You are one of them too.| But Peter said, |Man, I am not!|

59 And after about an hour still another insisted, |Certainly this man was with him, because he too is a Galilean.|

60 But Peter said, |Man, I don't know what you're talking about!| At that moment, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

61 Then the Lord turned and looked straight at Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, |Before a rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.|

62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.
