Mark 14:66

Simon
Fear

64 You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

65 Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the servant girls of the high priest came down

67 and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

68 But he denied it. “I do not know or even understand what you are talking about,” he said. Then he went out to the gateway, and the rooster crowed.
