72 With a solemn pledge, he denied it again, saying, "I don’t know the man."
73 A short time later those standing there came and said to Peter, "You must be one of them. The way you talk gives you away."
74 Then he cursed and swore, "I don’t know the man!" At that very moment the rooster crowed.
75 Peter remembered Jesus’ words, "Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times." And Peter went out and cried uncontrollably.
