Matthew 26:71

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

When Peter had gone out to the gate, another servant girl saw him and said to some people there, “This man was with Jesus from Nazareth.”

See the chapter Copy

and they went to live there in the town of Nazareth. So the Lord's promise came true, just as the prophet had said, “He will be called a Nazarene.”

But in front of everyone Peter said, “That isn't so! I don't know what you are talking about!”

Again Peter denied it, and this time he swore, “I don't even know that man!”

A little later someone else saw Peter and said, “You are one of them!” “No, I'm not!” Peter replied.
