Luke 22:54–62

Jesus’ Arrest

54 aHaving arrested Him, they led Him away and brought Him to the house of the high priest; but bPeter was following at a distance.

55 aAfter they had kindled a fire in the middle of bthe courtyard and had sat down together, Peter was sitting among them.

56 And a servant-girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight and looking intently at him, said, “This man was with Him too.”

57 But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”

58 A little later, aanother saw him and said, “You are one of them too!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

59 After about an hour had passed, another man began to insist, saying, “Certainly this man also was with Him, afor he is a Galilean too.”

60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

61 aThe Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, bBefore a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”

62 And he went out and wept bitterly.
