Mark 14:62-72

62 And Jesus said, "I am, and ¹you will see the Son of Man ²seated at the right hand of Power, and ³coming with the clouds of heaven."

63 And the high priest ⁴tore his garments and said, "What further witnesses do we need?

64 You have heard ⁵his blasphemy. What is your decision?" And they ⁶all condemned him as ⁷deserving death.

65 ⁸And some began ⁹to spit on him and ¹⁰to cover his face and to strike him, saying to him, "Prophesy!" And the guards received him ¹¹with blows.

Peter Denies Jesus

66 ¹²And as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came,

67 and seeing Peter ¹³warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus."

68 But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you mean." And he went out into the gateway^[a] and ¹⁴the rooster crowed.^[b]

69 And the servant girl saw him and began again to say to the bystanders, "This man is one of them."

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."

71 But he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, "I do not know this man of whom you speak."

72 And immediately the rooster crowed ¹⁵a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had said to him, ¹⁶"Before the rooster crows twice, you will ¹⁷deny me three times." And he broke down and wept.^[c]
