Matthew 26:70–75

70 But he denied it in front of everyone: “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

71 When he had gone out to the gateway, another woman saw him and told those who were there, “This man was with Jesus the Nazarene!”a

72 And again he denied it with an oath:b “I don’t know the man!”

73 After a little while those standing there approached and said to Peter, “You really are one of them, since even your accentC gives you away.”

74 Then he started to curse and to swear with an oath, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately a rooster crowed, 75 and Peter remembered the words Jesus had spoken, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”c And he went outside and wept bitterly.
