Luke 22:55–63
55When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.↗
56A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”↗
57He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”↗
58After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”↗
59After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”↗
60But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.↗
61The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him,“Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”↗
62He went out, and wept bitterly.↗
63The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.↗
