54 Na ka hopukina ia e ratou, ka arahina atu, a kawea ana ki roto ki te whare o te tino tohunga. Ko Pita ia i aru mai i tawhiti.
55 A, no ka oti i a ratou he kapura te tahu ki waenga marae, i a ratou e noho tahi ana, ka noho hoki a Pita i waenganui o ratou.
56 Na ka kitea ia e tetahi kotiro, i a ia e noho ana i te marama o te kapura; a matatau tonu te titiro ki a ia, ka mea, I a ia ano hoki tenei.
57 Na ka whakakahore ia ki a ia, ka mea, E ko, kahore ahau e mohio ki a ia.
58 A taro kau iho ka kite tetahi atu i a ia, ka mea, No ratou hoki koe. Na ka mea a Pita, E mara, kahore.
59 A, me te mea kotahi te haora i muri iho, ka tohe ano tetahi atu, ka mea, He pono i a ia ano hoki tenei: no Kariri hoki.
60 A ka mea a Pita, E mara, kahore ahau e matau ki tau e mea na. A i reira pu ano, i a ia e korero ana, ka tangi te tikaokao.
61 Na ka tahuri te Ariki, ka titiro ki a Pita A ka mahara a Pita ki te kupu a te Ariki, ki tana meatanga ki a ia, E kore e tangi te tikaokao, ka toru au whakakahoretanga i ahau.
62 Na haere atu ana a Pita ki waho, a nui atu tona tangi.
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.
