54 Prendendo-o, eles o levaram e introduziram na casa do sumo sacerdote; e Pedro ia seguindo de longe.

55 Eles, tendo-se acendido fogo no meio do pátio, sentaram-se, e Pedro sentou-se no meio deles.

56 Uma criada, vendo-o sentado ao lume, o encarou e disse: Este também estava com ele.

57 Mas Pedro negou, dizendo: Não o conheço, mulher.

58 Daí a pouco, vendo-o um outro, disse: Também tu és dos tais. Respondeu Pedro: Homem, não sou.

59 Tendo passado cerca de uma hora, afirmou ainda outro: Certamente este andava com ele, porque também é galileu.

60 Respondeu Pedro: Homem, não sei o que estás dizendo. Logo, estando ele ainda a falar, cantou o galo.

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

62 E saindo 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.
