And they took him and, driving him out of the vine-garden, put him to death.

And the Chief-priests and the Pharisees, hearing his parables, took note, that, concerning them, he was speaking.

And they went about to lay hands on him, but they feared the people, because they took him as a prophet.

For you give a tenth of your mint, dill and cumin [i.e., small garden herbs used for seasoning or fragrance], and [yet] neglect the heavier responsibilities required by the law, [such as] justice, mercy and faith. You should have done these ["lighter"] things and not neglected to do the other ["heavier"] things [as well].

"It is too bad for you hypocritical experts in the law of Moses and [you] Pharisees! For you [carefully] wash the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they [i.e., such evil people] are full of greed and uncontrolled desire.

You blind Pharisees! You must first clean the inside of the cup and the dish, so that the outside may be clean too.

"It is too bad for you hypocritical experts in the law of Moses and [you] Pharisees! For you are like white-washed tombs, used for burial [sites], which appear beautiful on the outside, but on the inside are full of the bones and decaying flesh of dead people.

It will be too bad for those who are pregnant and who are nursing babies in those days.

Pray, too, that your flight may not take place in winter, nor on a Sabbath;

so, you too, when you see all these things, recognize that He is near, right at the door.

naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye took care of me: I was in prison, and ye visited me.

and when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in; or naked, and clothed thee?

I was wandering, and you took me not in; without clothing, and you gave me no clothing; ill, and in prison, and you came not to me.

But Peter went after him at a distance, to the house of the high priest, and went in and took his seat with the servants, to see the end.

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a waiting girl came up to him, and said, "You, too, were with Jesus the Galilean."

And they took off his clothing, and put on him a red robe.

And they spat on him [and] took the reed and repeatedly struck [him] on his head.

And the high priests, too, made sport of Him, with the scribes and elders, and said,

And behold, Jesus met them, saying, "Greetings!" And they came up [and] took hold of his feet and worshiped him.

And they gathered them together with the elders, and took counsel, and gave large money unto the soldiers,
