For it is written in the book of Psalms, "Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell therein;" and, "Let another take his office." Of these men, therefore, who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us, must one be made a witness with us of his resurrection.

And Jesus said to him, Friend, for what hast thou come! Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and seized him. And, lo! one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck the servant of the highpriest, and cut off his ear. Then Jesus saith to him, Put back thy sword into its place; for all they that take the sword will perish by the sword. Dost thou think that I cannot pray to my Father, and he will now give me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take me; I sat daily teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hands on me. But all this hath been done, that the Scriptures of the prophets may be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled. And they who seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the highpriest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. But Peter followed him at a distance, as far as to the court of the highpriests palace, and went in, and sat with the officers to see the end. And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; and they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. But at last came two, and said, This man affirmed, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it within three days. And the highpriest arose, and said to him, Dost thou make no answer to what these men testify against thee? But Jesus was silent. And the highpriest answering said to him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith to him, I am. Moreover I say to you, Henceforth ye will see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven. Then the highpriest rent his garments, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? See! ye have now heard the blasphemy. What think ye? They answered and said, He should be punished with death. Then they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and some smote him with the palms of their hands, saying, Prophesy to us, O Messiah! who it was that struck thee. Now Peter was sitting outside in the court. And a maidservant came to him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean. But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. And when he had gone out into the porch, another woman saw him, and said to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene. And again he denied with an oath; I do not know the man. And shortly after, they who were standing by came and said to Peter, Surely thou too art one of them; for thy speech betrayeth thee. Then he began to curse and to swear, saying, I do not know the man. And immediately a cock crew. And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said, Before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
And they laid hands on him and seized him. And one of those who stood by drew his sword, and smote the servant of the highpriest, and cut off his ear. And Jesus answering said to them, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me. I was daily with you in the temple, teaching, and ye did not lay hands on me; but [thus it is], that the Scriptures may be fulfilled. And all forsook him and fled. And there followed him a certain young man having a linen cloth wrapped round his naked body; and they laid hold of him. And he left the linen cloth behind, and fled naked. And they led Jesus away to the highpriest; and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes come together. And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the palace of the highpriest, and was sitting with the officers, and warming himself at the fire. And the chief priests and the whole council sought for testimony against Jesus in order to put him to death; and they found none. For many bore false witness against him, but their testimonies did not agree together. And some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying, We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another not made with hands. And not even so did their testimony agree. And the highpriest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Dost thou make no answer to what these men testify against thee? But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the highpriest asked him, and saith to him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed? And Jesus said, I am; and ye will see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven. Then the highpriest rent his garments, and said, What further need have we of witnesses? Ye have heard the blasphemy; what think ye? And they all condemned him as deserving the punishment of death. And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face and buffet him, and say to him, Prophesy! And the officers, with blows, took him in charge. And as Peter was below in the court, there cometh one of the maidservants of the highpriest; and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, Thou too wast with the Nazarene, Jesus. But he denied, saying, I do not know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the forecourt; and a cock crew. And the maidservant, seeing him, began again to say to those who were standing by, This is one of them. And he denied it again. And shortly after, those who were standing by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilaean. But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak. And immediately a cock crew a second time. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And when he thought thereon, he wept.
And one of them smote the servant of the highpriest, and cut off his right ear. But Jesus answering said, Permit thus far; and touched his ear, and healed him. Then Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders who had come to him, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs; when I was daily with you in the temple, ye did not put forth your hands against me; but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the highpriest. And Peter followed afar off. And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down among them. But a certain maidservant saw him sitting at the fire, and steadily looking at him said, This man also was with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, I do not know him. And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. And in about one hours time, another confidently affirmed, saying, In truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilaean. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crew. And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before a cock crows this day, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly. And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him; and having blindfolded him, they asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee? And many other things did they scoffingly say against him. And when it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together, and brought him before their council, saying, If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe; and if I ask, ye will not answer. But from this time the Son of man will sit on the right hand of the power of God. Then they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say what is true; for I am. And they said, What further need have we of testimony? For we have ourselves heard from his own mouth.
As soon then as he said to them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground. Again therefore he asked them, Whom do ye seek? And they said, Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he. If therefore ye are seeking me, let these men go. That the saying might be fulfilled which he spoke, "Of those whom thou hast given me, I have lost none." Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and smote the servant of the highpriest, and cut off his right ear. And the servants name was Malchus. Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put up the sword into the sheath. The cup which the Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? So the band and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him, and carried him to Annas first; for he was fatherinlaw of Caiaphas, who was highpriest that year. And it was Caiaphas who counseled the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people. And Simon Peter and the other disciple followed Jesus. That disciple was an acquaintance of the highpriest, and went with Jesus into the court of the palace of the highpriest. But Peter was standing outside at the door. The other disciple therefore, who was an acquaintance of the highpriest, went out and spoke to her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. Then the maidservant that kept the door saith to Peter, Art thou also one of this mans disciples? He saith, I am not. And the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold, and were warming themselves; and Peter was standing with them and warming himself. The highpriest then asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his teaching. Jesus answered him, I have spoken plainly to the world; I always taught in a synagogue and in the temple, where all the Jews assemble, and in secret I spoke nothing. Why askest thou me? Ask those who have heard, what I have spoken to them; behold, these know what I have said. And when he had said this, one of the officers who was standing by struck Jesus on the face, saying, Is it thus that thou answerest the highpriest? Jesus answered him, If I spoke what is evil, testify to the evil; but if well, why dost thou strike me? Annas therefore sent him bound to Caiaphas the highpriest. And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, Art thou also one of his disciples? He denied and said, I am not. One of the servants of the highpriest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him? Then Peter denied again; and immediately a cock crew. Then they lead Jesus from Caiaphas to the governors palace; and it was early. And they did not themselves go into the palace, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover. Pilate therefore went out to them, and saith, What accusation do ye bring against this man? They answered and said to him, If he had not been doing evil, we would not have delivered him up to thee. Pilate therefore said to them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not lawful for us to put any one to death. That the words of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying what kind of death he was to die. Pilate therefore went into the palace again, and called Jesus, and said to him, Art thou the King of the Jews? Jesus answered, Dost thou say this of thyself, or did others tell thee concerning me? Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy own nation and the chief priests delivered thee up to me. What hast thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have fought, that I should not be delivered up to the Jews; but now is my kingdom not from hence. Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest what is true; for I am a king. For this end have I been born, and for this cause have I come into the world, that I may bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth listeneth to my voice.

And Zacchaeus stood up, and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any one by false representation, I restore him fourfold. And Jesus said to him, This day hath salvation come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham; for the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost.
