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

Matthew 26:69-75

69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the court. And a maidservant came to him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.

70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.

71 And when he had gone out into the porch, another woman saw him, and said to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.

72 And again he denied with an oath; I do not know the man.

73 And shortly after, they who were standing by came and said to Peter, Surely thou too art one of them; for thy speech betrayeth thee.

74 Then he began to curse and to swear, saying, I do not know the man. And immediately a cock crew. 75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said, Before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

Mark 14:66-72

66 And as Peter was below in the court, there cometh one of the maidservants of the highpriest; 67 and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, Thou too wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.

68 But he denied, saying, I do not know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the forecourt; and a cock crew.

69 And the maidservant, seeing him, began again to say to those who were standing by, This is one of them.

70 And he denied it again. And shortly after, those who were standing by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilaean.

71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak.

72 And immediately a cock crew a second time. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And when he thought thereon, he wept.
