51. But Yeshua answered and said, “Stop this now!” And He touched the man’s ear and healed him.
52. Then Yeshua said to the ruling kohanim, officers of the Temple guard, and the elders who had come against Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as you would against a revolutionary?
53. Every day I was with you in the Temple, yet you did not lay a finger on Me. But this is yours—the hour and the power of darkness.”
54. Then they seized Yeshua and led Him away and brought Him into the house of the kohen gadol . But Peter was following from a distance.
55. Now they had lit a fire in the center of the courtyard and sat down together, and Peter was sitting among them.
56. Then a servant girl saw him sitting at the fire. She looked straight at him and said, “This one was with Him too!”
57. But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I don’t know Him!”
58. A little later, another saw him and said, “You too are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”
59. And about an hour later, another began to insist, saying, “Certainly this fellow was with Him, for he too is a Galilean!”
60. But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
61. And the Lord turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, ‘Before the rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.’
62. And Peter went out and wept bitterly.
63. Now the men who were guarding Yeshua began mocking and beating Him.
64. They blindfolded Him and kept asking Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is the one who hit You?”
65. And reviling Him, they were saying many other things against Him.
