John 18:21-27 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

21. Why do you question Me? Question those who have heard what I spoke to them; they know what I said."

22. When He had said this, one of the officers standing nearby struck Jesus, saying, "Is that the way You answer the high priest?"

23. Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, testify of the wrong; but if rightly, why do you strike Me?"

24. So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

25. Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, "You are not also one of His disciples, are you?" He denied it, and said, "I am not."

26. One of the slaves of the high priest, being a relative of the one whose ear Peter cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with Him?"

27. Peter then denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.
