54 Então, prendendo-o, o levaram e o introduziram na casa do sumo sacerdote; e Pedro seguia-o de longe.

55 E tendo eles acendido fogo no meio do pátio e havendo-se sentado à roda, sentou-se Pedro entre eles.

56

57 Mas Pedro o negou, dizendo: Mulher, não o conheço.

58 Daí a pouco, outro o viu, e disse: Tu também és um deles. Mas Pedro disse: Homem, não sou.

59 E, tendo passado quase uma hora, outro afirmava, dizendo: Certamente este também estava com ele, pois é galileu.

60 Mas Pedro respondeu: Homem, não sei o que dizes. E imediatamente estando ele ainda a falar, cantou o galo.

61 Virando-se o Senhor, olhou para Pedro; e Pedro lembrou-se da palavra do Senhor, como lhe havia dito: Hoje, antes que o galo cante, três vezes me negarás.

62 E, havendo saído, chorou amargamente.

54 And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,

55 and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,

56 and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, 'And this one was with him!'

57 and he disowned him, saying, 'Woman, I have not known him.'

58 And after a little, another having seen him, said, 'And you are of them!' and Peter said, 'Man, I am not.'

59 And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, 'Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'

60 and Peter said, 'Man, I have not known what you say;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.

61 And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him -- 'Before a cock shall crow, you may disown me thrice;'

62 and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.
