Mark
Mark 14:69–72
69There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”
70But he denied it again.
After a little while, those standing nearby said once more to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you too are a Galilean.”o
71But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!” 72And immediately the rooster crowed a second time.
Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
