- 22:47While He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was going before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.
- 22:48But Jesus said to him, Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?
- 22:49And those around Him, seeing what would happen, said, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?
- 22:50And a certain one of them struck the slave of the high priest and took off his right ear.
- 22:51But Jesus answered and said, Let them go this far. And touching his ear, He healed him.
- 22:52And Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders who had come up against Him, Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs?
- 22:53While I was with you day by day in the temple, you did not stretch out your hands against Me. But this is your hour and the authority of darkness.
- 22:54And having arrested Him, they led Him away, and brought Him into the house of the high priest. But Peter followed at a distance.
- 22:55And when they had lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.
- 22:56And a certain servant girl, seeing him seated in the light of the fire, looked intently at him and said, This man was with Him too.
- 22:57But he denied it, saying, I do not know Him, woman.
- 22:58And after a short time, another person, seeing him, said, You also are one of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not!
- 22:59And after about one hour had passed, another one insisted, saying, Surely this man was also with Him, for he is also a Galilean.
- 22:60But Peter said, Man, I do not know what you are saying. And instantly, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
- 22:61And the Lord turned and looked at Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.
- 22:62And he went outside and wept bitterly.
- 22:63And the men who were holding Him mocked Him and beat Him.
- 22:64And they blindfolded Him and questioned Him, saying, Prophesy! Who is the one who hit You?
- 22:65And they said many other things against Him, blaspheming.
- 22:66And when it became day, the assembly of the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, were gathered together, and they led Him away to their Sanhedrin, saying,
- 22:67If You are the Christ, tell us. But He said to them, If I tell you, you shall by no means believe;
- 22:68And if I ask you, you shall by no means answer.
- 22:69But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.
- 22:70And they all said, Are You then the Son of God? And He said to them, You say rightly that I am.
- 22:71And they said, What further need do we have of testimony? For we have heard it ourselves from His mouth.
