58 Ὁ δὲ Πέτρος
ἠκολούθει αὐτῷ
ἀπὸ μακρόθεν
ἕως
 
τῆς αὐλῆς
τοῦ ἀρχιερέως,
καὶ
εἰσελθὼν* ἔσω*
ἐκάθητο
μετὰ τῶν ὑπηρετῶν
 
ἰδεῖν τὸ τέλος.
 
[....]
 
69 Ὁ δὲ
Πέτρος
ἐκάθητο ἔξω
ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ·
καὶ προσῆλθεν
 
 
 
 
 
 
αὐτῷ
μία* παιδίσκη,*
λέγουσα·
Καὶ σὺ* ἦσθα*
μετὰ Ἰησοῦ*
τοῦ Γαλιλαίου.*
 
 
70 ὁ δὲ ἠρνήσατο
ἔμπροσθεν πάντων,
λέγων· Οὐκ οἶδα
 
τί λέγεις.*
71 ἐξελθόντα δὲ
εἰς τὸν πυλῶνα
 
 
 
εἶδεν αὐτὸν ἄλλη
 
καὶ λέγει τοῖς
ἐκεῖ·
Οὗτος*
ἦν μετὰ Ἰησοῦ
τοῦ Ναζωραίου.*
72 καὶ πάλιν
ἠρνήσατο μετὰ
ὅρκου ὅτι,
Οὐκ οἶδα
τὸν ἄνθρωπον.
73 μετὰ* μικρὸν δὲ
προσελθόντες
οἱ ἑστῶτες
εἶπον τῷ Πέτρῳ·
Ἀληθῶς
καὶ σὺ
ἐξ αὐτῶν* εἶ,
καὶ γὰρ ἡ λαλιά
σου δῆλόν σε ποιεῖ.
74 τότε ἤρξατο
καταθεματίζειν
καὶ ὀμνύειν ὅτι,
Οὐκ οἶδα
τὸν* ἄνθρωπον.
 
καὶ εὐθέως
 
ἀλέκτωρ ἐφώνησεν.
 
 
 
75 καὶ ἐμνήσθη
ὁ Πέτρος
τοῦ ῥήματος
Ἰησοῦ*
εἰρηκότος
 
ὅτι, Πρὶν ἀλέκτορα
φωνῆσαι τρὶς
ἀπαρνήσῃ με·
καὶ ἐξελθὼν ἔξω
ἔκλαυσεν πικρῶς.
54 Καὶ ὁ Πέτρος
ἀπὸ μακρόθεν
ἠκολούθησεν αὐτῷ
ἕως ἔσω*
 
εἰς* τὴν αὐλὴν
τοῦ ἀρχιερέως,
καὶ
ἦν συγκαθήμενος*
 
μετὰ τῶν ὑπηρετῶν
καὶ θερμαινόμενος
πρὸς τὸ φῶς.*
 
[....]
 
66 Καὶ ὄντος
τοῦ Πέτρου
κάτω
ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ
ἔρχεται
μία* τῶν παιδισκῶν*
τοῦ ἀρχιερέως,
67 καὶ ἰδοῦσα*
τὸν* Πέτρον
θερμαινόμενον
ἐμβλέψασα
αὐτῷ
 
λέγει·
Καὶ σὺ*
μετὰ
τοῦ Ναζαρηνοῦ*
ἦσθα*
τοῦ Ἰησοῦ.*
68 ὁ δὲ ἠρνήσατο,
 
λέγων· Οὔτε οἶδα
οὔτε ἐπίσταμαι σὺ
τί λέγεις.*
καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω
εἰς τὸ προαύλιον,
καὶ ἀλέκτωρ
ἐφώνησεν.
69 καὶ ἡ παιδίσκη
ἰδοῦσα αὐτὸν
ἤρξατο πάλιν
λέγειν τοῖς
παρεστῶσιν ὅτι,
Οὗτος* ἐξ αὐτῶν*
ἐστιν.
 
70 ὁ δὲ πάλιν
ἠρνεῖτο.
 
 
 
καὶ μετὰ* μικρὸν
πάλιν
οἱ παρεστῶτες
ἔλεγον τῷ Πέτρῳ·
Ἀληθῶς
 
ἐξ αὐτῶν εἶ,
καὶ γὰρ
Γαλιλαῖος* εἶ.
71 ὁ δὲ ἤρξατο
ἀναθεματίζειν
καὶ ὀμνύναι ὅτι,
Οὐκ οἶδα
τὸν* ἄνθρωπον
τοῦτον ὃν λέγετε.
72 καὶ εὐθὺς
ἐκ δευτέρου
ἀλέκτωρ ἐφώνησεν.
 
 
 
καὶ ἀνεμνήσθη
ὁ Πέτρος
τὸ ῥῆμα
 
ὡς εἶπεν
αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς*
ὅτι, Πρὶν ἀλέκτορα
φωνῆσαι δὶς τρίς
με ἀπαρνήσῃ·
καὶ ἐπιβαλὼν
ἔκλαιεν.
54b Ὁ δὲ Πέτρος
ἠκολούθει
μακρόθεν.
55 περιαψάντων δὲ
πῦρ ἐν μέσῳ
τῆς αὐλῆς
 
καὶ
συγκαθισάντων
ἐκάθητο ὁ Πέτρος
μέσος αὐτῶν.
 
 
 
 
 
56 ἰδοῦσα* δὲ
αὐτὸν* παιδίσκη*
τις καθήμενον*
πρὸς τὸ φῶς*
καὶ
 
 
 
 
 
ἀτενίσασα
αὐτῷ
 
εἶπεν·
Καὶ οὗτος*
σὺν αὐτῷ
 
ἦν·*
 
57 ὁ δὲ ἠρνήσατο,
 
λέγων· Οὐκ οἶδα
αὐτόν,* γύναι.
 
58 καὶ μετὰ* βραχὺ
 
 
 
 
ἕτερος ἰδὼν αὐτὸν
 
ἔφη·
 
Καὶ σὺ* ἐξ αὐτῶν*
εἶ·
 
ὁ δὲ Πέτρος
ἔφη·
Ἄνθρωπε,
οὐκ εἰμί.
 
59 καὶ διαστάσης
ὡσεὶ ὥρας μιᾶς
ἄλλος τις
διϊσχυρίζετο, λέγων·
Ἐπ᾿ ἀληθείας
καὶ οὗτος
μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἦν,
καὶ γὰρ
Γαλιλαῖός* ἐστιν·
60 εἶπεν δὲ ὁ
Πέτρος·
Ἄνθρωπε,
οὐκ οἶδα
 
ὃ λέγεις.*
καὶ παραχρῆμα
ἔτι λαλοῦντος αὐτοῦ
ἐφώνησεν ἀλέκτωρ.
61 καὶ στραφεὶς
ὁ κύριος ἐνέβλεψεν
τῷ Πέτρῳ,
καὶ ὑπεμνήσθη
ὁ Πέτρος
τοῦ ῥήματος
τοῦ κυρίου
ὡς εἶπεν
αὐτῷ
ὅτι, Πρὶν ἀλέκτορα
φωνῆσαι σήμερον
ἀπαρνήσῃ με τρίς·
62 καὶ ἐξελθὼν ἔξω
ἔκλαυσεν πικρῶς.

58 But Peter
was following him
from afar
until
 
the courtyard
of the high priest,
and
went inside*
and sat down
with the officers
 
to see the ending.
 
[....]
 
69 But Peter
was
 
sitting down outside
in the courtyard;
and* one
servant girl* came
 
 
 
 
to him,
saying:
You* were also
with Jesus
the Galilean.*
70 But he denied it
before all,
saying: I do not know
 
what you are saying.*
71 But when he went
into the gateway
 
 
another saw him
and
says
to those there:
This man* was
with Jesus
the Nazoraean.*
72 And again
he denied it
with an oath:
I do not know
the man.
73 But after a* little bit
those
standing by
said to Peter:
Truly
you are also
from among them,*
for your speech also
makes it clear you are.
74 Then he began
to curse and swear:
I do not know
the man.
 
And straightway
 
a cock crowed.
 
 
75 And Peter remembered
the word
of Jesus,
who had said:
Before a cock crows
you shall
thrice deny me.
And he went outside
and wept bitterly.
54 And Peter
followed him
from afar
until inside*
 
the courtyard
of the high priest,
and
was
seated* down
with the officers and
was warming himself
toward the light.*
 
[....]
 
66 And as Peter
was
 
down
in the courtyard
there comes one
of the servant girls*
of the high priest,
67 and when*
she saw* Peter
warming himself
she looked at him
and says:
You* were also
with the Nazarene*
Jesus.
68 But he denied it,
 
saying: I neither know
nor understand
what you are saying.*
And he went
out onto the porch,
and a cock crowed.
69 And the servant
girl saw him
and again began
to say
to the bystanders:
This man* is
from among them.*
 
70 But again
he denied it.
 
 
 
And after a* little bit
again
the bystanders were
saying to Peter:
Truly
you are
from among them,
for you are also
a Galilean.*
71 But he began
to curse and swear:
I do not know
this man
of whom you speak.
72 And straightway,
for the second time,
a cock crowed.
 
 
And Peter remembered
the word,
how Jesus
had said to him:
Before a cock crows
twice you shall
thrice deny me.
And he cast himself out
and wept.
54b But Peter
was following
afar.
55 And, after they
kindled a fire in the middle
of the courtyard
 
and
were sitting down,
Peter sat down
in their midst.
 
 
 
 
 
56 But when*
a certain servant girl*
saw* him
seated* down
toward the light*
and
 
 
 
 
 
stared at him
and said:
This man* was also
with him.
 
57 But he denied it,
 
saying: I do not know
him, woman.
 
58 And after a* while
 
 
 
another saw him
and
spoke:
 
You* also are
from among them.*
 
But Peter
spoke:
Man,
I am not.
 
59 And when
about one hour had
passed another one
insisted, saying:
Of a truth
this man was also
with him,
for he is also
a Galilean.*
60 But Peter said:
Man,
I do not know
 
what you are saying.*
And immediately,
while he was still talking,
a cock crowed.
61 And the Lord turned
and looked at Peter,
and Peter remembered
the word
of the Lord, how he
had said to him:
Before a cock crows
today you shall
thrice deny me.
62 And he went outside
and wept bitterly.

15 Ἠκολούθει δὲ τῷ Ἰησοῦ Σίμων Πέτρος καὶ ἄλλος μαθητής. ὁ δὲ μαθητὴς ἐκεῖνος ἦν γνωστὸς τῷ ἀρχιερεῖ, καὶ συνεισῆλθεν τῷ Ἰησοῦ εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τοῦ ἀρχιερέως, 16 ὁ δὲ Πέτρος εἱστήκει πρὸς τῇ θύρᾳ ἔξω. ἐξῆλθεν οὖν ὁ μαθητὴς ὁ ἄλλος ὁ γνωστὸς τοῦ ἀρχιερέως καὶ εἶπεν τῇ θυρωρῷ καὶ εἰσήγαγεν τὸν Πέτρον. 17 λέγει οὖν τῷ Πέτρῳ ἡ παιδίσκη ἡ θυρωρός· Μὴ καὶ σὺ ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν εἶ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τούτου; λέγει ἐκεῖνος· Οὐκ εἰμί. 18 εἱστήκεισαν δὲ οἱ δοῦλοι καὶ οἱ ὑπηρέται ἀνθρακιὰν πεποιηκότες, ὅτι ψῦχος ἦν, καὶ ἐθερμαίνοντο· ἦν δὲ καὶ ὁ Πέτρος μετ᾿ αὐτῶν ἑστὼς καὶ θερμαινόμενος.

25 Ἦν δὲ Σίμων Πέτρος ἑστὼς καὶ θερμαινόμενος. εἶπον οὖν αὐτῷ· Μὴ καὶ σὺ ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ εἶ; ἠρνήσατο ἐκεῖνος καὶ εἶπεν· Οὐκ εἰμί. 26 λέγει εἷς ἐκ τῶν δούλων τοῦ ἀρχιερέως, συγγενὴς ὢν οὗ ἀπέκοψεν Πέτρος τὸ ὠτίον· Οὐκ ἐγώ σε εἶδον ἐν τῷ κήπῳ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ; 27 πάλιν οὖν ἠρνήσατο Πέτρος· καὶ εὐθέως ἀλέκτωρ ἐφώνησεν.

15 But Simon Peter was following Jesus, along with another disciple. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and he went in along with Jesus inside the courtyard of the high priest, 16 but Peter was standing outside toward the door. The other disciple, then, the one known of the high priest, went outside and spoke to the doorkeeper, and he brought Peter in. 17 The servant girl, the doorkeeper, says therefore to Peter: Are you not also from among the disciples of this man? He says: I am not. 18 And the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a charcoal flame, since it was cold, and they were warming themselves. And Peter was also with them, standing and warming himself.

25 And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him: Are you not also from among his disciples? He denied it and said: I am not. 26 One from among the servants of the high priest, being a kinsman of the one whose ear Peter had cut off, says: Did I not see you in the garden with him? 27 Again then Peter denied it. And straightway a cock crowed.
