But he again denied it. And after a little while again those who stood by said to Peter, Surely thou are from them, for thou are a Galilean, and thy accent is similar.
71 But he began to curse and to swear, [saying], I know not this man of whom ye speak.
But he began to curse and to swear, I do not know this man of whom ye speak.
