55 Some people built a fire in the middle of the courtyard and were sitting around it. Peter sat there with them,
56 and a servant girl saw him. Then after she had looked at him carefully, she said, “This man was with Jesus!”
57 Peter said, “Woman, I don't even know that man!”
58 A little later someone else saw Peter and said, “You are one of them!”“No, I'm not!” Peter replied.
59 About an hour later another man insisted, “This man must have been with Jesus. They both come from Galilee.”
60 Peter replied, “I don't know what you are talking about!” At once, while Peter was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61 The Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered that the Lord had said, “Before a cock crows tomorrow morning, you will say three times that you don't know me.”
