Mark 14:66-72
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Peter Denies Jesus Three Times
66 And Peter being below in the courtyard, one of the servant-girls of the high priest comes. 67 And having seen Peter warming himself, having looked at him, she says “You also were with the One from-Nazareth, Jesus”. 68 But the one denied it, saying “I neither know nor understand what you are saying”. And he went outside to the entryway[a]. And a rooster crowed. 69 And the[b] servant-girl having seen him began again[c] to say to the ones standing near that “This one is one of them”. 70 But the one was again denying it. And after a little while, again the ones standing near were saying to Peter, “Truly you are one of them, for you also are a Galilean”. 71 But the one began to curse[d], and to swear-with-an-oath[e] that “I do not know this man Whom you are saying”. 72 And immediately a rooster crowed for a second-time. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus said to him that “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three-times”. And having put his mind upon[f] it, he was weeping.
