Matthew 26:69-75 - Peter Denies Jesus Three Times

Matthew 26:69-75

69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a female slave came up to him [and] said, "You also were with Jesus the Galilean."

70 But he denied [it] in the presence of [them] all, saying, "I do not know what you mean!"

71 And [when he] went out to the gateway, another [female slave] saw him and said to those [who were] there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene."

72 And again he denied [it] with an oath, "I do not know the man!"

73 And after a little [while] those who were standing there came up [and] said to Peter, "You really are [one] of them also, because even your accent {reveals who you are}."

74 Then he began to curse and to swear with an oath, "I do not know the man!" And immediately a rooster crowed. 75 And Peter remembered the statement Jesus had said, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times," and he went outside [and] wept bitterly.

Mark 14:66-72

66 And [while] Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the female slaves of the high priest came up 67 And [when] she saw Peter warming himself, she looked intently at him [and] said, "You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus."

68 But he denied [it], saying, "I neither know nor understand what you mean!" And he went out into the gateway, and a rooster crowed.

69 And the female slave, [when she] saw him, began to say again to the bystanders, "This man is one of them!"

70 But he denied [it] again. And after a little [while], again the bystanders began to say to Peter, "You really are [one] of them, because you also are a Galilean, and your accent {shows it}!"

71 And he began to curse and to swear with an oath, "I do not know this man whom you are talking about!"

72 And immediately a rooster crowed for the second time. And Peter remembered the statement, how Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times," and throwing himself down, he began to weep.
