Then Peter denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.

Immediately a rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him: “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept.

At that he began to curse, and he swore with an oath, “I do not know the man!” At that moment a rooster crowed.

Jesus replied, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know me.”

Jesus said to him, “I tell you the truth, on this night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”

Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.

Jesus said to him, “I tell you the truth, today – this very night – before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”

But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” At that moment, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for me? I tell you the solemn truth, the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!

Then the Lord turned and looked straight at Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before a rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.”
