59 But not even then did their testimony agree.
60 aAnd the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, “Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?”
61 But aHe kept silent and answered nothing. bAgain the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?”
62 Jesus said, “I am. aAnd you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.”
63 Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, “What further need do we have of witnesses?
64 You have heard the ablasphemy! What do you think?” And they all condemned Him to be deserving of bdeath.
65 Then some began to aspit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers1 struck Him with the palms of their hands.
Peter Denies Jesus, and Weeps
66 aNow as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came.
67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, “You also were with aJesus of Nazareth.”
68 But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you are saying.” And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed.
