Peter Denies Jesus Three Times
69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a female slave came up to him and[a] said, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.” 70 But he denied it[b] in the presence of them all, saying, “I do not know what you mean!” 71 And when he[c] went out to the gateway, another female slave[d] saw him and said to those who were there, “This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.”
