Luke 22:63-71

Jesus Is Mocked

63 1Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him.
64 2They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, 3"Prophesy! 4Who is it that struck you?"
65 And they said many other things against him, 5blaspheming him.

Jesus Before the Council

66 6When day came, 7the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. And they led him away to their 8council, and they 9said,
67 10"If you are 11the Christ, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe,
68 and if I ask you, you will not answer.
69 But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated 12at the right hand of the power of God."
70 So they all said, "Are you 13the Son of God, then?" And he said to them, 14"You say that I am."
71 Then they said, "What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips."
