⁷⁰ But again he denied it. And after a little while the bystanders again said to Peter, “Certainly you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.”

⁷ And ^(A)they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking ^(B)Galileans?

⁵⁹ And after an interval of about an hour still another ^(A)insisted, saying, “Certainly this man also was with him, for he too is a Galilean.” ⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.

⁶⁸ But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you mean.” And he went out into the gateway^[a] and ^(A)the rooster crowed.^[b]

⁷³ After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Certainly you too are one of them, for ^(A)your accent betrays you.” ⁷⁴ Then he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, “I do not know the man.” And immediately the rooster crowed.

²⁶ One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of ^(A)the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Did I not see you ^(B)in the garden with him?” ²⁷ Peter again denied it, and ^(C)at once a rooster crowed.

⁶ they said to him, “Then say Shibboleth,” and he said, “Sibboleth,” for he could not pronounce it right. Then they seized him and slaughtered him at ^(A)the fords of the Jordan. At that time 42,000 of the Ephraimites fell.
