Luke 22:34

Context
22:34 Jesus replied, 1  “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow 2  today until you have denied 3  three times that you know me.”

Luke 22:60

Context
22:60 But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” At that moment, 4  while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 5 

1 tn Grk “he said”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

2 sn That is, Peter’s denials will happen before the sun rises.

3 sn Once again, Jesus is quite aware that Peter will deny him. Peter, however, is too nonchalant about the possibility of stumbling.

4 tn Grk “And immediately.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

5 tn A real rooster crowing is probably in view here (rather than the Roman trumpet call known as gallicinium), in part due to the fact that Mark 14:72 mentions the rooster crowing twice. See the discussion at Matt 26:74.
