mnt - Matthew:26:69-75

mnt@Matthew:26:69 @ Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one of the maidservants came up to him and said, "You also were with Jesus, the Galilean!"

mnt@Matthew:26:70 @ But he denied it before them all; "I do not know what you mean," he said.

mnt@Matthew:26:71 @ Soon afterward he went out into the porch, and another maid saw him, and said to those who were there, "This fellow certainly was with Jesus, the Nazarene!"

mnt@Matthew:26:72 @ And again he denied it with an oath, saying, "I never knew the man."

mnt@Matthew:26:73 @ A little later the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "You also are certainly one of them, for your speech betrays you."

mnt@Matthew:26:74 @ Then he began to curse and swear, saying, "I never knew the man." Immediately the cock crew!

mnt@Matthew:26:75 @ Then Peter recalled the word that Jesus had spoken, "Before the cock crow, you shall three times deny me" - and he went out and broke out into bitter weeping.
