Jesus

And immediately--while he is yet speaking--cometh near Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders;

and he who is delivering him up had given a token to them, saying, `Whomsoever I shall kiss, he it is, lay hold on him, and lead him away safely,'

and having come, immediately, having gone near him, he saith, `Rabbi, Rabbi,' and kissed him.

And they laid on him their hands, and kept hold on him;

And Jesus answering said to them, `As against a robber ye came out, with swords and sticks, to take me!

daily I was with you in the temple teaching, and ye did not lay hold on me--but that the Writings may be fulfilled.'

And having left him they all fled;

and a certain young man was following him, having put a linen cloth about his naked body, and the young men lay hold on him,

And they led away Jesus unto the chief priest, and come together to him do all the chief priests, and the elders, and the scribes;

and Peter afar off did follow him, to the inside of the hall of the chief priest, and he was sitting with the officers, and warming himself near the fire.

And the chief priests and all the sanhedrim were seeking against Jesus testimony--to put him to death, and they were not finding,

for many were bearing false testimony against him, and their testimonies were not alike.

And certain having risen up, were bearing false testimony against him, saying--

`We heard him saying--I will throw down this sanctuary made with hands, and by three days, another made without hands I will build;'

And the chief priest, having risen up in the midst, questioned Jesus, saying, `Thou dost not answer anything! what do these testify against thee?'

and he was keeping silent, and did not answer anything. Again the chief priest was questioning him, and saith to him, `Art thou the Christ--the Son of the Blessed?'

and Jesus said, `I am; and ye shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power, and coming with the clouds, of the heaven.'

Ye heard the evil speaking, what appeareth to you?' and they all condemned him to be worthy of death,

and certain began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say to him, `Prophesy;' and the officers were striking him with their palms.

and having seen Peter warming himself, having looked on him, she said, `And thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth!'

and he began to anathematize, and to swear--`I have not known this man of whom ye speak;'

and a second time a cock crew, and Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him--`Before a cock crow twice, thou mayest deny me thrice;' and having thought thereon--he was weeping.

And immediately, in the morning, the chief priests having made a consultation, with the elders, and scribes, and the whole sanhedrim, having bound Jesus, did lead away, and delivered him to Pilate;

and Pilate questioned him, `Art thou the king of the Jews?' and he answering said to him, `Thou dost say it .'

And the chief priests were accusing him of many things, but he answered nothing.
