Mark:14:53-65

nsb@Mark:14:53 @ They led Jesus away to the high priest. The chief priests, elders and scribes came together with him.

nsb@Mark:14:54 @ Peter followed him at a distance. He followed into the court of the high priest. He was sitting with the officers staying warm by the fire.

nsb@Mark:14:55 @ Now the chief priests and the whole council looked for witness against Jesus to put him to death. They found none.

nsb@Mark:14:56 @ Many gave false witness against him. But their witness was not in agreement.

nsb@Mark:14:57 @ One person falsely witnessed against him by saying:

nsb@Mark:14:58 @ »We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.«

nsb@Mark:14:59 @ Even so their witness did not agree.

nsb@Mark:14:60 @ The high priest stood in the middle of them, and said to Jesus: »Do you not answer? What is it these say against you?«

nsb@Mark:14:61 @ But he kept quiet and said nothing. Again the high priest questioned him: »Are you the Christ, the son of the Holy One?«

nsb@Mark:14:62 @ Jesus said: »I am and you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.«

nsb@Mark:14:63 @ Violently parting his robes, the high priest said: »What need do we have for more witnesses?«

nsb@Mark:14:64 @ We have heard his words against God. What is your opinion? They all said he should be put to death.

nsb@Mark:14:65 @ Some spit on him and covering his face they gave him blows. Guess who hit you, they said. The leaders took him and beat him with their hands.
