Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,

Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.

And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?

Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.

And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,

Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.

But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?

Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?

When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,

And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?

And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.

As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.
