Mark 14:55-65

55 Now the chief priests and the whole ¹Council kept trying to obtain testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, and they were not finding any.

56 For many were giving false testimony against Him, but their testimony was not consistent.

57 Some stood up and began to give false testimony against Him, saying,

58 "We heard Him say, '²I will destroy this temple made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.' "

59 Not even in this respect was their testimony consistent.

60 The high priest stood up and came forward * and questioned Jesus, saying, "Do You not answer? What is it that these men are testifying against You?"

61 ³But He kept silent and did not answer. ⁴Again the high priest was questioning Him, and saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?"

62 And Jesus said, "I am; and you shall see ⁵THE SON OF MAN SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF POWER, and ⁶COMING WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN."

63 ⁷Tearing his clothes, the high priest said, "What further need do we have of witnesses?

64 "You have heard the ⁸blasphemy; how does it seem to you?" And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death.

65 Some began to ⁹spit at Him, and ¹⁰to blindfold Him, and to beat Him with their fists, and to say to Him, "¹¹Prophesy!" And the officers received Him with slaps in the face.
