Luke 22:51-69
English Standard Version
Chapter 22
51But Jesus said, "No more of this!" And he touched his ear and healed him. 52Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? 53When I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness."
54Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest 's house, and Peter was following at a distance.
55And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.
56Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the light and looking closely at him, said, "This man also was with him."
57But he denied it, saying, "Woman, I do not know him."
58And a little later someone else saw him and said, "You also are one of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not."
59And after an interval of about an hour still another insisted, saying, "Certainly this man also was with him, for he too is a Galilean."
60But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are talking about." And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
61And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, "Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times."
62And he went out and wept bitterly.
63Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him.
64They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, "Prophesy! Who is it that struck you?"
65And they said many other things against him, blaspheming him.
66When day came, the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. And they led him away to their council, and they said,
67"If you are the Christ, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe,
68and if I ask you, you will not answer.
69But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of the power of God."
