Matthew 26:63-75

63But 1JesusG2424 keptG4623 silentG4623. 2And the highG749 priestG749 saidG3004 to Him, “I 3placeG1844 You underG1844 oathG1844 by 4the livingG2198 GodG2316, to tellG3004 us whetherG1487 You are the 5ChristG5547, 6the SonG5207 of GodG2316.” 64JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “7You have saidG3004 it yourself. ButG4133 I tellG3004 you, from nowG737 on you will seeG3708 8the SonG5207 of ManG444 sittingG2521 at the rightG1188 handG1188 of powerG1411, and 9comingG2064 on the cloudsG3507 of heavenG3772.”

65ThenG5119 the highG749 priestG749 10toreG1284 his 11robesG2440 and saidG3004, “He has blasphemedG987! WhatG5101 furtherG2089 needG5532 do we haveG2192 of witnessesG3144? SeeG2396, you have nowG3568 heardG191 the blasphemyG988; 66whatG5101 do you thinkG1380?” They answeredG611, “12He deservesG1777 deathG2288!”

6713ThenG5119 they 14spitG1716 in His faceG4383 and beatG2852 Him withG2852 their fistsG2852; and othersG3588 15slappedG4474 Him, 68and saidG3004, “16ProphesyG4395 to us, You 17ChristG5547; whoG5101 is the one who hitG3817 You?”

6918NowG1161 PeterG4074 was sittingG2521 outsideG1854 in the 19courtyardG833, and a slaveG3814 womanG3814 cameG4334 to him and saidG3004, “You tooG2532 were with JesusG2424 the GalileanG1057.” 70But he deniedG720 it beforeG1715 them allG3956, sayingG3004, “I do not knowG3609 whatG5101 you are talkingG3004 about.” 71When he had goneG1831 outG1831 to the gatewayG4440, anotherG243 slave woman sawG3708 him and saidG3004 to thoseG3588 whoG3588 were thereG1563, “ThisG3778 manG3778 was with JesusG2424 of NazarethG3480.” 72And againG3825 he deniedG720 it, with an oathG3727: “I do not knowG3609 the manG444.” 73A littleG3398 laterG3326 the bystandersG2476 cameG4334 upG4334 and saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “You reallyG230 are one of them asG2532 wellG2532, 20sinceG1063 evenG2532 the wayG2981 you talkG2981 21givesG4160 you awayG1212G4160.” 74ThenG5119 he beganG757 to curseG2617 and swearG3660, “I do not knowG3609 the ManG444!” And immediatelyG2117 a roosterG220 crowedG5455. 75And PeterG4074 rememberedG3403 the statementG4487 that JesusG2424 had 22madeG3004: “23BeforeG4250 a roosterG220 crowsG5455, you will denyG533 Me threeG5151 timesG5151.” And he wentG1831 outG1831 and weptG2799 bitterlyG4090.
