and some arose and testified falsely against him, saying,

We heard him say, I will destroy this temple made with hands, and in three days will build another made without hands.

And he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the chief priest asked him, and said to him, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

You have heard the blasphemy; what do you think? And they all condemned him to be deserving of death.

And some spit on him; and they blindfolded him, and beat him with the fist, and said to him, Prophesy. And the officers beat him with open hands.

and seeing Peter warming himself, looked at him, and said, You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.

And the chief priests accused him of many things.

And Pilate again asked him saying, Do you answer nothing? see how many things they charge against you.

And Jesus answered him not any more; so that Pilate wondered.

For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up from envy.

And Pilate again answered and said to them, What, then, do you wish me to do to him whom you call the king of the Jews?

And they cried again, Crucify him!

And Pilate said to them, [Why]? for what evil has he done? But they cried more violently, Crucify him!

And they crucified with him two robbers, one on his right hand and the other on his left.

And those who passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, and saying, Aha, you that destroy the temple and build it in three days!

In like manner also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes, said one to another, He saved others; himself he cannot save;

let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And those crucified with him reproached him.

And some of those standing by, hearing him, said, See, he calls Elijah.

And one ran, and filled a sponge with vinegar, and putting it on a reed gave it to him to drink, saying, Let him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.

and the centurion who stood near, opposite to him, seeing that he so expired, said, Truly, this man was a Son of God.

And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of fathers to children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

And the angel answered and said to him, I am Gabriel, who stand before God; and I was sent to speak to you, and to tell you this good news.

He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God shall give him the throne of David his father,

and his mercy is to generations and generations of them that fear him.
