And Jesus says to him, Thou hast said: but I say to you, from henceforth ye shall see the Son of man, sitting from the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Then the chief priest tore his garments, saying, That he blasphemed: what further need have we of witnesses? see, now ye have heard his blasphemy. What seems to you? And they having answered, said, He is liable to the penalty of death. Then did they spit in his face, and cuffed him, and struck him with a rod: Saying, Prophesy to us, O Christ, Who is he having struck thee
And quickly, he yet speaking, Judas approaches, being one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and sticks from the chief priests and scribes and the more ancient. And he delivering him up gave them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, this is he; seize him, and lead away safely. And having come, quickly having approached him, he says, Rabbi, rabbi; and kissed him. read more.
And they put their hands on him, and seized him. And a certain one of them standing by, having drawn a sword, struck the chief priest's servant, and took away his ear. And Jesus having answered, said to them, As against a robber come ye out, with swords and sticks to take me Daily was I with you in the temple teaching, and ye seized me not: but that the writings might be completed. And having left him, they all fled. And one certain young man followed him, having cast a garment of fine linen over his nakedness; and the young men seized him: And having left the fine linen garment, he fled from them naked. And they led Jesus away to the pontificate: and all the chief priests and elders and scribes came with him. And Peter followed him from far, even to within the court-yard of the chief priest: and he was sitting with the attendants, and warming himself near the light. And the chief priests and the whole council sought testimony against Jesus, to put him to death; and found not: For many testified falsely against him, and the testimonies were not alike. And certain having risen up testified falsely against him, saying, That we heard him saying, That I will abolish this temple made with hands, and in three days will I build another, made without hands. And neither so was their testimony alike. And the chief priest having risen up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what these testify against thee And he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the chief priest asks him, and says to him, Art thou Christ, Son of the Praised And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting from the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven. And the chief priest, having rent his tunic, says, What further need have we of witnesses Ye have heard the blasphemy; How does it appear to you? And they all condemned him to be liable to the penalty of death. And certain began to spit upon him, and to cover his face, and to cuff him, and to say to him, Prophesy: and the attendants struck him blows with rods.

I being with you daily in the temple, ye stretched not forth the hands upon me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

And having kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and they having sat down together, Peter sat down in the midst of them. And a certain young girl having seen him sitting by the light, and looked intently upon him, said, And this was with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. And after a little another having seen him, said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. And about the space of one hour a certain other assured himself, saying, Of a truth this also was with him: for he is a Galilean. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, he yet speaking, the cock uttered a sound. And the Lord having turned, looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, That before the cock utters a sound, thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter having come forth without wept bitterly. And the men holding Jesus mocked him, stripping. And having covered him, they struck his face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy who it is having struck thee. And many other things, blaspheming, they spake against him. And when it was day, the council of elders of the people was gathered together, and the chief priests and scribes, and they brought him to their council, Saying, Art thou Christ? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye would not believe: And if I ask you, ye would not answer me, or loose me. From now shall the Son of man be sitting from the right hand of the power of God. And they all said, Art thou therefore the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say that I am. And they said, Why have we yet need of testimony? for we ourselves have heard from his month.

And they speaking to the people, the priests, and commander of the temple, and the Sadducees, resisted them, Being exercised because they taught the people, and announced in Jesus the rising up from the dead. And they put hands upon them, and set in guard for the morrow: for it was already evening. read more.
And many of them having heard the word, believed; and the number of men was about five thousand. And it was on the morrow, their rulers, and elders, and scribes, were gathered together at Jerusalem, And Annas, chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the lineage of the chief priest. And having set them in the midst, they inquired, In what power, or in what name did ye do this? Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, If we are this day examined of the kindness of the sick man, by whom he has been saved; Be it known to all you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarite, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, in this he stands before you whole. This is the stone set at nought by you building, he having been for the head of the corner. And salvation is in no other: for neither is another name given under heaven among men, in which we must be saved. And seeing the freedom of speech of Peter and John, and comprehending that they are illiterate men, and private individuals, they wondered; and they knew them, that they were with Jesus. And seeing the man healed standing with them, they had nothing to contradict. And having urged them to depart out of the council, they deliberated with one another, Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that truly a known sign has been by them, manifest to all them dwelling in Jerusalem: and we cannot deny. But that it be not more and more exposed to the wind among the people, let us threaten them with a threat, to speak no more in this name to any man. And having called them, they enjoined them universally not to utter neither to teach in the name of Jesus. And Peter and John having answered to them, said, If it is just before God to hear you rather than God, judge ye. For we cannot, the things we have seen and heard, not speak. And they having made additional threats, loosed them, finding nothing how they might chastise them, for sake of the people: for all honoured God for that having been done.

And certain of them arose from the synagogue, called Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrian, and of them from Cilicia and Asia, seeking out with Stephen. And they were not able to withstand the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake. Then they put under men, saying, That we have heard him speaking defaming words against Moses, and God. read more.
And they roused together the people, and elders, and scribes, and having stood against, they seized him, and brought to the council, And set false witnesses, saying, This man ceases not speaking defaming words against this holy place, and the law: For we have heard him saying; That Jesus the Nazarite shall abolish this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered to us. And all they sitting in the council, having looked intently upon him, saw his face as the face of a messenger.

And the chief priest said, Hold these things thus? And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye: The God of glory was sent to our father Abraham, being in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran, And he said to him, Come out of thy land, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee. read more.
Then having come out of the land of the Chaldeans, he dwelt in Charran: and thence, after his father died, he transplanted him into this land, in which ye now dwell. And he gave him none inheritance in it, not a step of the foot: and he promised to give it him for a possession, and to his seed after him, there being no child to him. And God spake thus, That his seed shall be dwelling in a strange land; and it shall subjugate them, and inflict evil four hundred years. And the nation which they serve will I judge, said God: and after these shall they go out, and shall serve me in this place. And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so he begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac Jacob; and Jacob the twelve patriarchs. And the patriarchs having been jealous, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him, And took him out of all his pressures, and gave him grace and wisdom before Pharaoh king of Egypt; and set him leader over Egypt and his whole house. And a famine came upon the whole land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great pressure: and our fathers found no food. And Jacob having heard wheat being in Egypt, sent our fathers first. And in the second time, Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's race was manifest to Pharaoh. And Joseph having sent, called for his father Jacob, and all his kindred, in seventy-five souls. And Jacob went down to Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers, And they transported him to Sychem and put him in the tomb which Abraham was satisfied with for a price of silver from the sons of Emmor of Sychem. And as the time of the solemn promise drew near, which God aware to Abraham, the people increased and were multiplied in Egypt. Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph. He having deceived our race by sophistry, inflicted evil upon our fathers, to make their babes cast out, that they should not breed. In which time Moses was born, and he was shrewd to God, who was nourished up three months in his father's house: And he having been exposed, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for a son to herself. And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was powerful in words and in works. And when the time of forty years was completed to him, it came up upon his heart to take a view of his brethren the sons of Israel. And having seen a certain one injured, he defended, and did vengeance for him harassed, having struck the Egyptian, And he supposed his brethren to understand that God by his hand gives them salvation: and they understood not. And the following day he was seen to those contending, and he compelled them to peace, having said, Men, ye are brethren; wherefore injure ye one another? And he injuring the neighbor repulsed him, having said, Who set thee a ruler and judge over us? Wilt thou not kill me, as thou didst kill the Egyptian yesterday? And Moses fled at this word, and he was a sojourner in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons. And forty years completed, a messenger of the Lord was seen to him in the desert of mount Sina, in a flame of fire in a bramble. And Moses having seen, wondered at the sight: and he coming near to observe attentively, the voice of the Lord was to him, I the God of thy fathers, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob. And Moses being trembling, dared not observe attentively. And the Lord said to him, Loose the shoes of thy feet: for the place in which thou standest is holy land. Having seen, I saw the injury of my people in Egypt, and I heard their groaning, and came down to take them away. And now came, I will send thee into Egypt. This Moses which they denied, having said, Who set thee ruler and judge? this, God sent, a ruler and redeemer by the hand of the messenger having been seen to him in the bramble. He brought them out, having done wonders and sign in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the desert forty years. This is Moses, having said to the sons of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you of your brethren, like me; him shall ye hear. This is he having been in the church in the desert with the messenger speaking to him in Mount Sina, and our fathers: who received the living oracles to give to us: To whom our fathers would not be obedient, but rejected, and in their hearts they turned back into Egypt, Having said to Aaron, Make us gods who shall go before us: for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what has been to him. And they made a calf in those days, and brought up a sacrifice to the image, and rejoiced in the works of their hands. And God turned, and delivered them up to serve the army of heaven; as it has been written in the book of the prophets, Slain victims and sacrifices brought ye not to me forty years in the desert, O house of Israel, And ye took up the tent of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, types which ye made to worship them: and I will transplant you beyond Babylon. The tent of testimony was with our fathers in the desert, as he speaking set to Moses, to make it according to the type which he had seen. Which also our fathers having received brought in with Jesus in the possession of nations, which God drove out from our fathers' face, even to the days of David; Who found grace before God, and asked to find a tent to the God of Jacob. And Solomon built for himself a house. But the Highest dwells not in temples made by hands; as says the prophet, Heaven a throne to me, and earth the footstool of my feet: what house will ye build to me? says the Lord: or what the place of my rest? Did not my hand make all these things? Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye always resist the Holy Spirit: as your fathers, also you. Which of the prophets did not your fathers drive out and they slew them announcing beforehand of the coming of the Just; of whom ye have now been traitors and murderers: Who have received the law by the regulations of messengers, and ye watched not. And having heard those, they were sawn through their hearts, and they gnashed the teeth upon him. And being full of the Holy Spirit, having looked intently to heaven, he saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, And he said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God. And having cried with a great voice, they held fast their ears, and rushed unanimously upon him, And having cast out of the city, they stoned: and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man called Saul. And they stoned Stephen, calling upon, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

And Paul, having looked intently to the council, said, Men, brethren, I have lived as a citizen in all good conscience to God till this day. And the chief priest Ananias commanded those standing by him to strike his month. Then said Paul to him, God is about to strike thee, thou wall covered with dust: and sittest thou judging me according to law, and commanded me to be struck illegally? read more.

Then were gathered together the chief priests, and scribes, and the more ancient of the people, into the court-yard of the chief priest, called Caliaphas,
And they having held Jesus, brought to Caiaphas the chief priest, where the scribes and elders were gathered together. And Peter followed him from far, even to the court-yard of the chief priest, and having entered within, he sat with the attendants, to see the end. And the chief priests, and the elders, and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put him to death; read more.

And having heard, they came in by morning to the temple, and taught. But the chief priest having approached, and they with him, called the council together, and all the assembly of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison for them to be brought. And the attendants having come near, found them not in the prison, and having returned, they announced, Saying, That we truly found the prison shut with all security, and the watch standing without before the doors: and having opened, we found none within. read more.
And when the priest and captain of the temple and chief priests heard these words, they were in doubt of them, what this might be. And a certain one having come near, announced to them, saying, That, behold, the men which ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people. Then the commander having gone with attendants, brought them, not with force: for they feared the people, lest they might be stoned. And having brought them, they set in the council: and the chief priest asked them, Saying, Did we not announce to you by order, not to teach by this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and ye desire to bring upon us this man's blood.

And the chief priest having answered, said to him, I cause thee to swear by the living God, that thou tell us, if thou art Christ, the Son of God. And Jesus says to him, Thou hast said: but I say to you, from henceforth ye shall see the Son of man, sitting from the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Then the chief priest tore his garments, saying, That he blasphemed: what further need have we of witnesses? see, now ye have heard his blasphemy. What seems to you? And they having answered, said, He is liable to the penalty of death. Then did they spit in his face, and cuffed him, and struck him with a rod: Saying, Prophesy to us, O Christ, Who is he having struck thee And Peter sat without in the court-yard, and one young girl came to him saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. And he denied before all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. And he having gone out into the gate, another saw him, and she says to them there, This also was with Jesus the Nazarite. And again he denied with an oath, That I know not the man. And a little after, those standing, having come near, said to Peter, Truly thou also art of them; for also thy speech makes thee manifest. Then began he to anathematize, and to swear, That I know not the man: and quickly the cock uttered a sound. And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, having said to him, That before the cock utter a sound, thou shalt deny me thrice. And having gone forth without, he wept bitterly.
And quickly, he yet speaking, Judas approaches, being one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and sticks from the chief priests and scribes and the more ancient. And he delivering him up gave them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, this is he; seize him, and lead away safely. And having come, quickly having approached him, he says, Rabbi, rabbi; and kissed him. read more.
And they put their hands on him, and seized him. And a certain one of them standing by, having drawn a sword, struck the chief priest's servant, and took away his ear. And Jesus having answered, said to them, As against a robber come ye out, with swords and sticks to take me Daily was I with you in the temple teaching, and ye seized me not: but that the writings might be completed. And having left him, they all fled. And one certain young man followed him, having cast a garment of fine linen over his nakedness; and the young men seized him: And having left the fine linen garment, he fled from them naked. And they led Jesus away to the pontificate: and all the chief priests and elders and scribes came with him. And Peter followed him from far, even to within the court-yard of the chief priest: and he was sitting with the attendants, and warming himself near the light. And the chief priests and the whole council sought testimony against Jesus, to put him to death; and found not: For many testified falsely against him, and the testimonies were not alike. And certain having risen up testified falsely against him, saying, That we heard him saying, That I will abolish this temple made with hands, and in three days will I build another, made without hands. And neither so was their testimony alike. And the chief priest having risen up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what these testify against thee And he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the chief priest asks him, and says to him, Art thou Christ, Son of the Praised And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting from the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven. And the chief priest, having rent his tunic, says, What further need have we of witnesses Ye have heard the blasphemy; How does it appear to you? And they all condemned him to be liable to the penalty of death. And certain began to spit upon him, and to cover his face, and to cuff him, and to say to him, Prophesy: and the attendants struck him blows with rods. And Peter being in the hall how, one of the chief priest's young girls comes: And seeing Peter warming himself, having looked upon him, she says, And thou wast with Jesus the Nazarene. And he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand what thou sayest. And he went forth without into the vestibule; and the cock uttered a sound. And the young girl seeing him again, began to say to, them standing by, That this is of them: and again he denied. And after a little, again they standing by said to Peter, Truly thou art of them: for thou art a Galilean, and thy speech is like. And he began to anathematize and swear, That I know not this man of whom ye speak. And of the second time the cock uttered a sound. And Peter remembered the word which Jesus spake to him, That before the cock utter a sound twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And throwing blame, he wept.
And they put their hands on him, and seized him. And a certain one of them standing by, having drawn a sword, struck the chief priest's servant, and took away his ear. And Jesus having answered, said to them, As against a robber come ye out, with swords and sticks to take me Daily was I with you in the temple teaching, and ye seized me not: but that the writings might be completed. And having left him, they all fled. And one certain young man followed him, having cast a garment of fine linen over his nakedness; and the young men seized him: And having left the fine linen garment, he fled from them naked.

And he yet speaking, Behold a crowd, and he called Judas, one of the twelve, came before them, and drew near to Jesus to kiss him. And Jesus said to him, Judas, deliverest thou up the Son of man with a kiss? And they about him, having seen that, going to be, said to him, Lord, shall we strike with the sword read more.
And a certain one of them struck a servant of the chief priest, and took away his right ear. And Jesus having answered said, Allow ye even to this. And having touched his ear, he healed him. And Jesus said to the chief priests, and generals of the temple, and the elders, having come to him, Have ye come out, as upon a robber, with sword and sticks? I being with you daily in the temple, ye stretched not forth the hands upon me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. And having taken, they brought him into the house of the chief priest. And Peter followed him far off. And having kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and they having sat down together, Peter sat down in the midst of them. And a certain young girl having seen him sitting by the light, and looked intently upon him, said, And this was with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. And after a little another having seen him, said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. And about the space of one hour a certain other assured himself, saying, Of a truth this also was with him: for he is a Galilean. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, he yet speaking, the cock uttered a sound. And the Lord having turned, looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, That before the cock utters a sound, thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter having come forth without wept bitterly. And the men holding Jesus mocked him, stripping. And having covered him, they struck his face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy who it is having struck thee. And many other things, blaspheming, they spake against him. And when it was day, the council of elders of the people was gathered together, and the chief priests and scribes, and they brought him to their council, Saying, Art thou Christ? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye would not believe: And if I ask you, ye would not answer me, or loose me. From now shall the Son of man be sitting from the right hand of the power of God. And they all said, Art thou therefore the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say that I am. And they said, Why have we yet need of testimony? for we ourselves have heard from his month.

Then Judas, having taken a band and attendants from the chief priests and Pharisees, comes there with lights and torches and weapons. Jesus then, knowing all coming upon him, having come out, said to them, Whom seek ye They answered him, Jesus the Nazarite. Jesus says to them, I am. And Judas also, he delivering up, was standing with them. read more.
Then, when he said to them, That I am, they went away backward, and fell to the ground. Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus the Nazarite. Jesus answered, I said to you, that I am: if then ye seek me, leave these to retire: That the word might be completed which he spake, That whom thou hast given me, I lost none of them. Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and struck the chief priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. And the name to the servant was Malchus. Then said Jesus to Peter, Put thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it Then the band and captain of a thousand and attendants of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him, And led him away to Annas first; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the chief priest that year. And Caiaphas was he having connselled the Jews, that it is profitable for one man to be destroyed for the people. And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and another disciple: and that disciple was known to the chief priest, and came together with Jesus to the hall of the chief priest. And Peter stood before the door without. Then went out the other disciple who was known to the chief priest, and spake to her guarding the door, and brought in Peter. Then says the young girl guarding the door to Peter, Art not thou also of this man's disciples? He says, I am not. And the servants and attendants stood, having made a heap of burning coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself. Then the chief priest asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his teaching. Jesus answered him, I spake with freedom of speech to the world: I always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews were always come together; and I spake nothing in secret. Why askest thou me? ask those having heard, what I said to them: see, they know what I said. And he having said these things, one of the attendants standing by gave Jesus a blow with a rod, having said, Answerest thou the chief priest so? Jesus answered him, If I spake badly, testify of evil: and if well, why strikest thou me? (Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.) And Simon Peter was standing, and warming himself. Then said they to him, Art thou not also of his disciples he denied, and said, I am not. Says one of the chief priest's servants, being of his family whose ear Peter cut off, Saw I not thee in the garden with him? Then Peter again denied: and quickly the cock uttered a sound. Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas to the pretorium: and it was early morning; and they came not into the pretorium, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the pascha. Then went Pilate out to them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man They answered and said to him, If he were not injurious, we had not delivered him to thee. Then said Pilate to them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. Then said the Jews to him, It is not lawful for us to kill any one: That the word of Jesus might be completed which he spake, giving a sign by what death he was about to die. Then came Pilate again into the pretorium, and asked Jesus, and said to him, Art thou the King of the Jews? Jesus answered him, Of thyself sayest thou this, or did others tell thee of me? Pilate answered, Much less am I a Jew; thy nation and the chief priests have delivered thee to me: What didst thou? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, my servants had contended, that I be not delivered to the Jews; and now my kingdom is not hence. Then said Pilate to him, Art thou not then king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world, that I testify to the truth. Every one being of the truth hears my voice. Pilate says to him, What is truth? And having said this, again went he out to the Jews, and says to them, I find no fault in him. But a custom is to you, that I loose one to you in the pascha: will ye therefore I should loose to you the King of the Jews Then cried they all again, saying, Not this, but Barabbas: and Barabbas was a robber.
Then, when he said to them, That I am, they went away backward, and fell to the ground. Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus the Nazarite. Jesus answered, I said to you, that I am: if then ye seek me, leave these to retire: That the word might be completed which he spake, That whom thou hast given me, I lost none of them.
