“Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.

“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And he broke down and wept.

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

And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word that the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”

“Will you lay down your life for Me?” Jesus replied. “Truly, truly, I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.

This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into heaven.

Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.
