Luke 22:63-71

English Standard Version

Jesus Is Mocked

^63 (A)Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him. ^64 (B)They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, ^(C)“Prophesy! ^(D)Who is it that struck you?” ⁶⁵ And they said many other things against him, ^(E)blaspheming him.

Jesus Before the Council

^66 (F)When day came, ^(G)the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. And they led him away to their ^(H)council, and they ^(I)said, ^67 (J)“If you are ^(K)the 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 ^(L)at the right hand of the power of God.” ⁷⁰ So they all said, “Are you ^(M)the Son of God, then?” And he said to them, ^(N)“You say that I am.” ⁷¹ Then they said, “What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips.”
