11ThenG5119 they secretlyG5260 inducedG5260 menG435 to sayG3004, “We have heardG191 him speakG2980 blasphemousG989 wordsG4487 againstG1519 MosesG3475 and against GodG2316.”

12And they stirredG4787 up the peopleG2992, the eldersG4245 and the scribesG1122, and they 1cameG2186 up to him and draggedG4884 him awayG4884 and broughtG71 him 2beforeG1519 3the 4CouncilG4892.

13They putG2476 forwardG2476 5falseG5571 witnessesG3144 who saidG3004, “ThisG3778 manG444 incessantlyG3756G3973 speaksG2980 againstG2596 thisG3778 6holyG40 placeG5117 and the LawG3551;

14for we have heardG191 him sayG3004 that 7thisG3778 NazareneG3480, JesusG2424, will destroyG2647 thisG3778 placeG5117 and alterG236 8the customsG1485 whichG3739 MosesG3475 handedG3860 downG3860 to us.”

15And fixingG816 their gazeG816 on him, allG3956 who were sittingG2516 in the 910CouncilG4892 sawG3708 his faceG4383 likeG5616 the faceG4383 of an angelG32.
