Matthew 26:62-75
-
62 And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
-
63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
-
64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
-
65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.
-
66 What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.
-
67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands,
-
68 Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?
-
69 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
-
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
-
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.
-
72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
-
73 And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
-
74 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.
-
75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
