54 Então, prendendo-o, o levaram, e o puseram em casa do sumo sacerdote. E Pedro seguia-o de longe.

55 E, havendo-se acendido fogo no meio do pátio, estando todos sentados, assentou-se Pedro entre eles.

56 E como certa criada, vendo-o estar assentado ao fogo, pusesse os olhos nele, disse: Este também estava com ele.

57 Porém, ele negou-o, dizendo: Mulher, não o conheço.

58 E, um pouco depois, vendo-o outro, disse: Tu és também deles. Mas Pedro disse: Homem, não sou.

59 E, passada quase uma hora, um outro afirmava, dizendo: Também este verdadeiramente estava com ele, pois também é galileu.

60 E Pedro disse: Homem, não sei o que dizes. E logo, estando ele ainda a falar, cantou o galo.

61 E, virando-se o Senhor, olhou para Pedro, e Pedro lembrou-se da palavra do Senhor, como lhe havia dito: Antes que o galo cante hoje, me negarás três vezes.

62 E, saindo Pedro para fora, 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 thou art 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 thou sayest; 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, thou mayest disown me thrice;

62 and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.
