John 18:27
Peter denied it once more, and immediately a rooster crowed.
from Peter’s Second and Third Denials, John 18:25-27
What it says

Peter denies Jesus again, and a rooster crows immediately.

What it is doing

The denial reaches its moment of recognition.

In context

25Simon Peter was still standing and warming himself. So they asked him, “Aren’t you also one of His disciples?” 26One of the high priest’s servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Didn’t I see you with Him in the garden?” 27Peter denied it once more, and immediately a rooster crowed.
