“Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended. 34Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.” Matthew 26:33-34
The more pride a man has and elevates himself above others, declaring that he will not fail like the others, the sooner and more obvious will that fall be. Peter fell that very night and the rooster announced it.
