And Jesus saith to him, 'See, thou mayest tell no one, but go, thyself shew to the priest, and bring the gift that Moses commanded for a testimony to them.'

Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, to the court of the chief priest who was called Caiaphas;

And lo, one of those with Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, drew his sword, and having struck the servant of the chief priest, he took off his ear.

And those laying hold on Jesus led him away unto Caiaphas the chief priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together,

and Peter was following him afar off, unto the court of the chief priest, and having gone in within, he was sitting with the officers, to see the end.

And the chief priest having stood up, said to him, 'Nothing thou dost answer! what do these witness against thee?

and Jesus was silent. And the chief priest answering said to him, 'I adjure thee, by the living God, that thou mayest say to us, if thou art the Christ -- the Son of God.'

Then the chief priest rent his garments, saying, -- 'He hath spoken evil; what need have we yet of witnesses? lo, now ye heard his evil speaking;

and saith to him, 'See thou mayest say nothing to any one, but go away, thyself shew to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony to them.'

how he went into the house of God, (at 'Abiathar the chief priest,') and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to eat, except to the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?'

and a certain one of those standing by, having drawn the sword, struck the servant of the chief priest, and took off his ear.

And they led away Jesus unto the chief priest, and come together to him do all the chief priests, and the elders, and the scribes;

and Peter afar off did follow him, to the inside of the hall of the chief priest, and he was sitting with the officers, and warming himself near the fire.

And the chief priest, having risen up in the midst, questioned Jesus, saying, 'Thou dost not answer anything! what do these testify against thee?'

and he was keeping silent, and did not answer anything. Again the chief priest was questioning him, and saith to him, 'Art thou the Christ -- the Son of the Blessed?'

And the chief priest, having rent his garments, saith, 'What need have we yet of witnesses?

And Peter being in the hall beneath, there doth come one of the maids of the chief priest,

There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the course of Abijah, and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elisabeth;

And it came to pass, in his acting as priest, in the order of his course before God,

And he charged him to tell no one, 'But, having gone away, shew thyself to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them;'

'And by a coincidence a certain priest was going down in that way, and having seen him, he passed over on the opposite side;

And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,

And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,

and a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest of that year, said to them, 'Ye have not known anything,

And this he said not of himself, but being chief priest of that year, he did prophesy that Jesus was about to die for the nation,

Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the chief priest's servant, and cut off his right ear -- and the name of the servant was Malchus --

and they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest of that year,

And following Jesus was Simon Peter, and the other disciple, and that disciple was known to the chief priest, and he entered with Jesus to the hall of the chief priest,

and Peter was standing at the door without, therefore went forth the other disciple who was known to the chief priest, and he spake to the female keeping the door, and he brought in Peter.

And he having said these things, one of the officers standing by did give Jesus a slap, saying, 'Thus dost thou answer the chief priest?'

Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.

One of the servants of the chief priest, being kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, 'Did not I see thee in the garden with him?'

and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the chief priest,

And having risen, the chief priest, and all those with him -- being the sect of the Sadducees -- were filled with zeal,

and having heard, they did enter at the dawn into the temple, and were teaching. And the chief priest having come, and those with him, they called together the sanhedrim and all the senate of the sons of Israel, and they sent to the prison to have them brought,

And as the priest, and the magistrate of the temple, and the chief priests, heard these words, they were doubting concerning them to what this would come;

and having brought them, they set them in the sanhedrim, and the chief priest questioned them,

And the chief priest said, 'Are then these things so?'

And Saul, yet breathing of threatening and slaughter to the disciples of the Lord, having gone to the chief priest,

And the priest of the Zeus that is before their city, oxen and garlands unto the porches having brought, with the multitudes did wish to sacrifice,

and there were certain -- seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest -- who are doing this thing;

as also the chief priest doth testify to me, and all the eldership; from whom also having received letters unto the brethren, to Damascus, I was going on, to bring also those there bound to Jerusalem that they might be punished,

and the chief priest Ananias commanded those standing by him to smite him on the mouth,

And those who stood by said, 'The chief priest of God dost thou revile?'

and Paul said, 'I did not know, brethren, that he is chief priest: for it hath been written, Of the ruler of thy people thou shalt not speak evil;'

And after five days came down the chief priest Ananias, with the elders, and a certain orator -- Tertullus, and they made manifest to the governor the things against Paul;

and the chief priest and the principal men of the Jews made manifest to him the things against Paul, and were calling on him,

for my being a servant of Jesus Christ to the nations, acting as priest in the good news of God, that the offering up of the nations may become acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

wherefore it did behove him in all things to be made like to the brethren, that he might become a kind and stedfast chief-priest in the things with God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people,

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the apostle and chief priest of our profession, Christ Jesus,

Having, then, a great chief priest passed through the heavens -- Jesus the Son of God -- may we hold fast the profession,

for we have not a chief priest unable to sympathise with our infirmities, but one tempted in all things in like manner -- apart from sin;

For every chief priest -- out of men taken -- in behalf of men is set in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,

so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: 'My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;'

as also in another place He saith, 'Thou art a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;'

having been addressed by God a chief priest, according to the order of Melchisedek,

whither a forerunner for us did enter -- Jesus, after the order of Melchisedek chief priest having become -- to the age.

For this Melchisedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who did meet Abraham turning back from the smiting of the kings, and did bless him,

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, and being made like to the Son of God, doth remain a priest continually.

If indeed, then, perfection were through the Levitical priesthood -- for the people under it had received law -- what further need, according to the order of Melchisedek, for another priest to arise, and not to be called according to the order of Aaron?

And it is yet more abundantly most evident, if according to the similitude of Melchisedek there doth arise another priest,

for He doth testify -- 'Thou art a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;'

and he with an oath through Him who is saying unto him, 'The Lord sware, and will not repent, Thou art a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;')

For such a chief priest did become us -- kind, harmless, undefiled, separate from the sinners, and become higher than the heavens,

And the sum concerning the things spoken of is: we have such a chief priest, who did sit down at the right hand of the throne of the greatness in the heavens,

for every chief priest to offer both gifts and sacrifices is appointed, whence it is necessary for this one to have also something that he may offer;

for if, indeed, he were upon earth, he would not be a priest -- (there being the priests who are offering according to the law, the gifts,

and into the second, once in the year, only the chief priest, not apart from blood, which he doth offer for himself and the errors of the people,

And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation --

nor that he may many times offer himself, even as the chief priest doth enter into the holy places every year with blood of others;

and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.

and a high priest over the house of God,

for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest -- of these the bodies are burned without the camp.
