Luke 22:56-63

56A female servant saw him as he sat facing the glow of the fire. She stared at him and said, “This man was with Jesus.”

57But Peter denied it by saying, “I don’t know him, woman.”

58A little later someone else saw Peter and said, “You are one of them.” But Peter said, “Not me!”

59About an hour later another person insisted, “It’s obvious that this man was with him. He’s a Galilean!”

60But Peter said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just then, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

61Then the Lord turned and looked directly at Peter. Peter remembered what the Lord had said: “Before a rooster crows today, you will say three times that you don’t know me.”

62Then Peter went outside and cried bitterly.

63The men who were guarding Jesus made fun of him as they beat him.
