Then Jesus went with his apostle to a garden called Gethsemane to pray. While he was praying Judas came with a group of soldiers, and kissed Jesus as a signal to them that Jesus was the person they should arrest. All the apostles ran away in fear. Jesus was taken to the house of the chief Jewish priest and accused of having claimed untruthfully that he was King of Jew. Peter , who had come to wait outside the house, was asked by one of the maids whether he was one of Jesus' companions.
He denied it. Two other people asked him the same questions and each time he claimed that he did not know Jesus at all. The third time the cock crew just as he was speaking, and he remembered Jesus' words. He went away to weep.
