Matthew:26:69-75

*
Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard ,
and one servant girl came to him ,
saying ,
Thou also were with Jesus the Galilean .
*
But he denied before them all ,
saying ,
I do not know what thou say .
*
And when he was gone out into the porch ,
another woman saw him ,
and says to them there ,
This man was also with Jesus the Nazarene .
*
And again he denied with an oath ,
I do not know the man .
*
And after a little while those who stood ,
having approached ,
said to Peter ,
Surely thou also are of them ,
for thy accent even makes thee apparent .
*
Then he began to curse vehemently and to swear ,
I do not know the man .
And straightaway a cock sounded .
*
And Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him ,
Before a cock sounds ,
thou will deny me thrice .
And having gone outside ,
he wept bitterly .
