Then they took him, and led [him], and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed at a distance.
55
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
56
But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.
57
And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58
And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
59
And about the space of one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying, In truth this [man] also was with him; for he is a Galilean.
60
And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crowed.
61
And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, Before the cock shall crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.
62
And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
63
And the men that held Jesus, mocked him, and smote [him].
64
And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?
