John 18:17-27

17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith , I am not.

18 And the servants and officers stood there , who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves : and Peter stood * with them, and warmed himself .

19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort ; and in secret have I said nothing.

21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me , what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said .

22 And when he had thus spoken , one of the officers which stood by struck * Jesus with the palm of his hand * , saying , Answerest thou the high priest so?

23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?

24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

25 And Simon Peter stood * and warmed himself . They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said , I am not.

26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off , saith , Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew .
