Mark 14:64-72 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

64. You have heard the blasphemy. How does it seem to you?" And they all condemned him, as guilty unto death.

65. And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face and to strike him with fists, and to say to him, "Prophesy." And the servants struck him with the palms their hands.

66. And while Peter was in the court below, one of the maidservants of the high priest arrived.

67. And when she had seen Peter warming himself, she stared at him, and she said: "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth."

68. But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you saying." And he went outside, in front of the court; and a rooster crowed.

69. Then again, when a maidservant had seen him, she began to say to the bystanders, "For this is one of them."

70. But he denied it again. And after a little while, again those standing near said to Peter: "In truth, you are one of them. For you, too, are a Galilean."

71. Then he began to curse and to swear, saying, "For I do not know this man, about whom you are speaking."

72. And immediately the rooster crowed again. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times." And he began to weep.
