47While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
48But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
49And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
50And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear.
51But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
52And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, which were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves?
53When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
54And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed afar off.
55And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them.
56And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light of the fire, and looking stedfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him.
57But he denied, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.
59And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.
60But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
61And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how that he said unto him, Before the cock crow this day, thou shalt deny me thrice.
62And he went out, and wept bitterly.
63And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him.
64And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee?
65And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.
66And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,
67If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
68and if I ask you, ye will not answer.
69But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.
