Mark 14:66-72
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
66 While Peter was down below in the courtyard, one of the [serving] maids of the high priest came;
67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she gazed intently at him and said, You were with Jesus of Nazareth too.
68 But he denied it [a]falsely and disowned Him, saying, I neither know nor understand what you say. Then he went outside [the courtyard and was] into the [b]vestibule. [c]And a cock crowed.
69 And the maidservant saw him, and began again to say to the bystanders, This [man] is [one] of them.
70 But again he denied it [d]falsely and disowned Him. And after a short while, again the bystanders said to Peter, [e]Really, you are one of them, for you are a Galilean [f]and your dialect shows it.
71 Then he commenced invoking a curse on himself [should he not be telling the truth] and swearing, I do not know the Man about Whom you are talking!
72 And at once for the second time a cock crowed. And Peter remembered how Jesus said to him, Before a cock crows twice, you will [g]utterly deny Me [disclaiming all connection with Me] three times. And [h]having put his thought upon it [and remembering], he broke down and wept aloud and [i]lamented.
