Luke 22:47-69

⁴⁷And while He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was going before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.

⁴⁸But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹And those around Him, seeing what was about to happen, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

⁵⁰And a certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹But Jesus answered and said, “Stop right there.” And touching his ear, He healed him.

⁵²Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the captains of the temple, and the elders who had come to Him, “Have you come out, as against a bandit, with swords and clubs?

⁵³When I was with you daily in the temple, you did not try to seize Me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴And having arrested Him, they led Him and brought Him into the house of the high priest. And Peter was following from a distance.

⁵⁵Now when they had lit a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat in their midst.

⁵⁶And a certain servant girl, seeing him sitting at the fire and gazing at him, said, “This man was also with Him.”

⁵⁷But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”

⁵⁸And after a little while another person saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹Then after about one hour had passed, another was firmly insisting, saying, “Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a Galilean.”

⁶⁰But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, “Before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

⁶²And going outside, Peter wept bitterly.

⁶³Now the men who were holding Jesus were mocking Him and beating Him.

⁶⁴And having blindfolded Him, they were striking His face and asking Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck You?”

⁶⁵And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.

⁶⁶And when it became day, the council of the elders of the people, the chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying,

⁶⁷“If You are the Messiah, tell us.” But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will by no means believe.

⁶⁸But if I also question you, you will by no means answer Me or release Me.

⁶⁹Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.”
