69Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one maidservant came near to him and said, 'You also were with Jesus the Galilean.'70But he denied it before all, saying, 'I do not know what you are saying.'71When he had gone out to the gate, another saw him and said to those who were there, 'This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.'72And again he denied it with an oath: 'I do not know the man.'73After a little while those who were standing came near and said to Peter, 'Truly you also are one of them, for your speech makes you evident.'74Then he began to curse and to swear that he did not know the man. And immediately a rooster crowed.75And Peter remembered the word of Jesus that he had said: 'Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.' And he went out and wept bitterly.
