Mark 14:70-72

International Children’s Bible

⁷⁰ Again Peter said that it was not true.

A short time later, some people were standing near Peter. They said, “We know you are one of those who followed Jesus. You are from Galilee, too.”

⁷¹ Then Peter began to curse. He said, “I swear that I don’t know this man you’re talking about!”

⁷² As soon as Peter said this, the rooster crowed the second time. Then Peter remembered what Jesus had told him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will say three times that you don’t know me.” Then Peter was very sad and began to cry.
