* And Simon Peter was following Jesus , as was the other disciple . Now that disciple was known to the high priest , and entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest . * But Peter stood at the door outside . Then the other disciple , who was known to the high priest , went out and spoke to the doorkeeper , and brought Peter in . * Then the servant girl who kept the door said to Peter , "You are not also one of this Man 's disciples , [are you ]?"He said , "I am not ." * And the servants and attendants who had made a fire of coals stood there , for it was cold , and they were warming themselves . Now Peter was standing with them and warming himself . * Then high priest asked Jesus about His disciples and His doctrine . * Jesus answered him , "I spoke openly to the world . I always taught in synagogues and in the temple , where the Jews always come together , and in secret I spoke nothing . * Why do you question Me ? Question those who have heard Me , what I spoke to them . Indeed they know what I said ." * And when He had said these things , one of the attendants who stood by slapped Jesus with the palm of his hand , saying , "Is this how You answer the high priest ?" * Jesus answered him , "If I have spoken evil , testify of the evil ; but if well , why do you strike Me ?" * Then Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest . * Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself . Therefore they said to him , "You are not also [one ] of His disciples , [are you ]?"Then he denied it and said , "I am not !" * One of the servants of the high priest , a relative of him whose ear Peter cut off , said , "Did I not see you in the garden with Him ?" * Peter then denied again ; and immediately a rooster crowed .
