14:53. And they brought Jesus to the high priest. And all the priests and the scribes and the ancients assembled together. 14:54. And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the high priest. And he sat with the servants at the fire and warmed himself. 14:55. And the chief priests and all the council sought for evidence against Jesus, that they might put him to death: and found none. 14:56. For many bore false witness against him: and their evidences were not agreeing. 14:57. And some rising up, bore false witness against him, saying: 14:58. We heard him say, I Will destroy this temple made with hands and within three days I will build another not made with hands. 14:59. And their witness did not agree. 14:60. And the high priest rising up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying: Answerest thou nothing to the things that are laid to thy charge by these men? 14:61. But he held his peace and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him and said to him: Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed God? 14:62. And Jesus said to him: I am. And you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God and coming with the clouds of heaven. 14:63. Then the high priest rending his garments, saith: What need we any further witnesses? 14:64. You have heard the blasphemy. What think you? Who all condemned him to be guilty of death. 14:65. And some began to spit on him and to cover his face and to buffet him and to say unto him: Prophesy. And the servants struck him with the palms their hands. 14:66. Now when Peter was in the court below, there cometh one of the maidservants of the high priest. 14:67. And when she had seen Peter warming himself looking on him, she saith: Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth. 14:68. But he denied, saying: I neither know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went forth before the court; and the cock crew. 14:69. And again a maidservant seeing him, began to say to the standers by: This is one of them. 14:70. But he denied again. And after a, while they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a Galilean. 14:71. But he began o curse and to swear, saying: I know not this man of whom you speak. 14:72. And immediately the cock crew again. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had said unto him: Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me. And he began to weep, Mark Chapter 15 The continuation of the history of the passion. 15:1. And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council, binding Jesus, led him away and delivered him to Pilate. 15:2. And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he answering, saith to him: Thou sayest it. 15:3. And the chief priests accused him in many things. 15:4. And Pilate again asked him, saying: Answerest thou nothing? Behold in how many things they accuse thee.
