Peter Says Again He Doesn’t Know Jesus^(A)

²⁵ As Simon Peter was standing and warming himself, they said to him, “Aren’t you one of that man’s ·followers [disciples]?”

Peter ·said it was not true [denied it]; he said, “No, I am not.”

²⁶ One of the ·servants [slaves; bond-servants] of the high priest was there. This servant was a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off [see 18:10]. The servant said, “Didn’t I see you with him in the ·garden [grove]?”

²⁷ Again Peter ·said it wasn’t true [denied it]. At once ·a rooster [^Tthe cock] crowed.
