Peter's denials
Matthew 26:69-75Mark 14:66-72John 18:15-18John 18:25-27
See them side by side
Luke 22:54-62
54And seizing him, they led him away and brought him into the house of the high priest; and Peter was following at a distance. 55And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter was sitting among them. 56And a certain servant girl, seeing him sitting facing the light and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.” 57But he denied it, saying, “I do not know him, woman.” 58And after a little while another saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.” 59And after about one hour had passed, a certain other man kept insisting, saying, “In truth this man also was with him, for he is also a Galilean.” 60But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 61And the Lord turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.” 62And he went outside and wept bitterly.
69Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a servant girl came up to him, saying, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.” 70But he denied it before all, saying, “I do not know what you are saying.” 71And when he went out to the gateway, another girl saw him and says to those there, “This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.” 72And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man.” 73And after a little while those who were standing there came up and said to Peter, “Truly you also are one of them, for even your way of speaking gives you away.” 74Then he began to call down curses and to swear: “I do not know the man.” And at once a rooster crowed. 75And Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.
66And while Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest comes, 67and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and says, “You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus.” 68But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you are saying.” And he went outside into the forecourt; and a rooster crowed. 69And the servant girl, seeing him, began again to say to those standing by, “This man is one of them.” 70But he again was denying it. And after a little while again those standing by were saying to Peter, “Truly you are one of them, for you are also a Galilean, and your speech is like theirs.” 71But he began to call down curses and to swear, “I do not know this man you are talking about.” 72And at once a second time a rooster crowed. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus had said to him, “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And breaking down, he was weeping.
15Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple. That disciple was known to the high priest, and he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, 16but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought Peter in. 17So the servant girl who kept the door says to Peter, “Surely you too are not one of the disciples of this man?” He says, “I am not.” 18Now the slaves and the officers were standing there, having made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were warming themselves; and Peter too was with them, standing and warming himself.
25Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “Surely you too are not one of his disciples?” He denied it and said, “I am not.” 26One of the slaves of the high priest, a relative of the one whose ear Peter had cut off, says, “Did I not see you in the garden with him?” 27So Peter denied it again, and at once a rooster crowed.
