Bible. Matthew
40:026:064 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto
you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the
right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
40:026:065 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken
blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now
ye have heard his blasphemy.
40:026:066 What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.
40:026:067 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others
smote him with the palms of their hands,
40:026:068 Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote
thee?
40:026:069 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto
him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
40:026:070 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou
sayest.
40:026:071 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him,
and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with
Jesus of Nazareth.
40:026:072 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
40:026:073 And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said
to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech
bewrayeth thee.
40:026:074 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the
man. And immediately the cock crew.
40:026:075 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him,
Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went
out, and wept bitterly.
40:027:001 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of
the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
40:027:002 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered
him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
40:027:003 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was
condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty
pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
40:027:004 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent
blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
40:027:005 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and
departed, and went and hanged himself.
40:027:006 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is
not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is
the price of blood.
40:027:007 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's
field, to bury strangers in.
40:027:008 Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this
day.
40:027:009 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the
