Mark 14:63-72 ▼

63 The high priest tearing his garments, says, Why have we yet need of witnesses?

64 You heard the blasphemy: what seems to you? And all answered, He is worthy of death.

65 And certain ones began to spit on Him, and to cover His face, and to buffet Him, and say to Him, Prophesy: and the officers received Him with blows.

66 And Peter being in the court, one of the maidservants of the high priest comes down;

67 and seeing Peter warming, looking upon him, says, Thou wast with Jesus the Nazarene.

68 And he denied, saying, I know not, neither do I understand what you say. And he went out into the portico; and the cock crew.

69 And the maidservant seeing him again, began to say to the bystanders, He is one of them.

70 And again he denied: and after a little again the bystanders were saying to Peter, Truly, thou art one of them; for indeed thou art a Galilean.

71 But he began to anathematize, and to swear, I know not this man of whom you speak.

72 And the cock crew the second time. And Peter remembered the word which Jesus told him; That, before the cock shall crow twice, thou wilt deny me thrice. And having gone out, he continued to weep.
