Preparing the Passover

22 (A)Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the (B)Passover, was approaching. 2 And the chief priests and the scribes (C)were trying to find [a]a way to put Him to death, since they were afraid of the people.

3 (D)And (E)Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, [b]who belonged to the number of the twelve. 4 And he left and discussed with the chief priests and (F)officers how he was to betray Him to them. 5 And they were delighted, and agreed to give him money. 6 And so he consented, and began looking for a good opportunity to betray Him to them [c]away from the crowd.

7 (G)Now the first day of Unleavened Bread came, on which (H)the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. 8 And so Jesus sent (I)Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.” 9 They said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare it?” 10 And He said to them, “When you have entered the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into the house that he enters. 11 And you shall say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’ 12 And he will show you a large, furnished upstairs room; prepare it there.” 13 And they left and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.

The Lord’s Supper

14 (J)When the hour came, He reclined at the table, and (K)the apostles with Him. 15 And He said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; 16 for I say to you, I shall not eat it again (L)until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” 17 (M)And when He had taken a cup and (N)given thanks, He said, “Take this and share it among yourselves; 18 for (O)I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.” 19 And when He had taken some bread and (P)given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, which is being given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 20 And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup, which is (Q)poured out for you, is the (R)new covenant in My blood. 21 (S)But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with [d]Mine on the table. 22 For indeed, the Son of Man is going (T)as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” 23 And they began to debate among themselves which one of them it was who was going to do this.

Who Is Greatest

24 And (U)a dispute also developed among them as to which one of them was regarded as being the greatest. 25 (V)And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles domineer over them; and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’ 26 But it is not this way for you; (W)rather, the one who is the greatest among you must become like (X)the youngest, and the leader like the servant. 27 For (Y)who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But (Z)I am among you as the one who serves.

28 “You are the ones who have stood by Me in My (AA)trials; 29 and just as My Father has granted Me a (AB)kingdom, I grant you 30 that you may (AC)eat and drink at My table in My (AD)kingdom, and (AE)you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31 “Simon, Simon, behold, (AF)Satan has [e]demanded to (AG)sift you men like wheat; 32 but I (AH)have prayed for [f]you, that [g]your faith will not fail; and [h]you, when you have [i]turned back, (AI)strengthen your brothers.” 33 (AJ)But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death!” 34 But He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”

35 And He said to them, “(AK)When I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They said, “No, nothing.” 36 And He said to them, “But now, [j]whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and [k]whoever has no sword is to sell his [l]cloak and buy one. 37 For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me: ‘(AL)And He was counted with wrongdoers’; for (AM)that which refers to Me has its [m]fulfillment.” 38 They said, “Lord, look, here are two (AN)swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”

The Garden of Gethsemane

39 (AO)And He came out and went, (AP)as was His habit, to (AQ)the Mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed Him. 40 (AR)Now when He arrived at the place, He said to them, “(AS)Pray that you do not come into temptation.” 41 And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He (AT)knelt down and began to pray, 42 saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this (AU)cup from Me; (AV)yet not My will, but Yours be done.” 43 [[n]Now an (AW)angel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him. 44 And (AX)being in agony, He was praying very fervently; and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground]. 45 When He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow, 46 and He said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Get up and (AY)pray that you do not come into temptation.”

Jesus Betrayed by Judas

47 (AZ)While He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came, and the one called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading the way for them; and he approached Jesus to kiss Him. 48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?” 49 When those who were around Him saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the (BA)sword?” 50 And one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear. 51 But Jesus responded and said, “[o]Stop! No more of this.” And He touched his ear and healed him. 52 And Jesus said to the chief priests and (BB)officers of the temple and elders who had come against Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs (BC)as you would against a man inciting a revolt? 53 While I was with you daily in the temple, you did not lay hands on Me; but [p]this hour and the power of darkness are yours.”

Jesus’ Arrest

54 (BD)Now they arrested Him and led Him away, and brought Him to the house of the high priest; but (BE)Peter was following at a distance. 55 (BF)After they kindled a fire in the middle of (BG)the courtyard and sat down together, Peter was sitting among them. 56 And a slave woman, seeing him as he sat in the firelight, and staring at him, said, “This man was with Him as well.” 57 But he denied it, saying, “I do not know Him, woman!” 58 And a little later, (BH)another person saw him and said, “You are one of them too!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!” 59 And after about an hour had passed, some other man began to insist, saying, “Certainly this man also was with Him, (BI)for he, too, is a Galilean.” 60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 61 And then (BJ)the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, “(BK)Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.” 62 And he went out and wept bitterly.

63 (BL)The men who were holding [q]Jesus in custody began mocking Him and beating Him, 64 and they blindfolded Him and repeatedly asked Him, saying, “(BM)Prophesy, who is the one who hit You?” 65 And they were saying many other things against Him, (BN)blaspheming.

Jesus before the Sanhedrin

66 (BO)When it was day, (BP)the [r]Council of elders of the people assembled, both chief priests and scribes, and they led Him away to their (BQ)council chamber, saying, 67 “(BR)If You are the [s]Christ, tell us.” But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe; 68 and if I ask a question, you will not answer. 69 (BS)But from now on (BT)the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.” 70 And they all said, “So You are (BU)the Son of God?” And He said to them, “(BV)You say correctly that I am.” 71 And then they said, “What further need do we have of testimony? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth!”

Hoffnung für Alle

Leiden, Tod und Auferstehung von Jesus (Kapitel 22–24)

Verschwörung gegen Jesus (Matthäus 26,1‒5; Markus 14,1‒2)

22 Das Fest der ungesäuerten Brote, das auch Passahfest genannt wird, stand kurz bevor. 2 Die obersten Priester und die Schriftgelehrten suchten nach einer günstigen Gelegenheit, bei der sie Jesus umbringen lassen könnten; sie fürchteten aber, im Volk einen Aufruhr auszulösen.

Der Verrat (Matthäus 26,14‒16; Markus 14,10‒11)

3 Zu der Zeit ergriff der Satan Besitz von Judas Iskariot, einem der zwölf Jünger von Jesus. 4 Judas ging zu den obersten Priestern und den Offizieren der Tempelwache und beriet mit ihnen, wie er Jesus an sie ausliefern könnte. 5 Hocherfreut versprachen die obersten Priester ihm eine Belohnung. 6 Sie wurden sich einig, und Judas suchte nach einer Gelegenheit, Jesus ohne Aufsehen zu verraten.

Vorbereitungen für das Passahfest (Matthäus 26,17‒19; Markus 14,12‒16)

7 Dann kam der erste Tag des Festes der ungesäuerten Brote, an dem das Passahlamm geschlachtet werden musste. 8 Jesus gab seinen Jüngern Petrus und Johannes den Auftrag: »Geht und bereitet alles vor, damit wir gemeinsam das Passahmahl feiern können.« 9 »Wo sollen wir denn das Fest vorbereiten?«, fragten sie.

10 Er antwortete: »Wenn ihr nach Jerusalem kommt, wird euch ein Mann begegnen, der einen Wasserkrug trägt. Folgt ihm in das Haus, das er betritt. 11 Dem Besitzer des Hauses sollt ihr sagen: ›Der Lehrer lässt dich fragen: Wo ist der Raum, in dem ich mit meinen Jüngern das Passahmahl feiern kann?‹ 12 Er wird euch ein großes Zimmer im Obergeschoss zeigen, das mit Polstern ausgestattet ist. Bereitet dort alles Weitere vor.« 13 Die beiden Jünger gingen in die Stadt und trafen alles so an, wie Jesus es ihnen gesagt hatte. Dann bereiteten sie das Passahmahl vor.

Jesus feiert mit seinen Jüngern das Passahmahl (Matthäus 26,20‒29; Markus 14,17‒25; Johannes 13,21‒30)

14 Als die Stunde für das Passahmahl gekommen war, nahm Jesus mit den Aposteln an der Festtafel Platz. 15 »Wie sehr habe ich mich danach gesehnt, mit euch dieses Passahmahl zu essen, bevor ich leiden muss«, sagte er. 16 »Ihr sollt wissen: Ich werde das Passahmahl erst wieder in Gottes Reich mit euch feiern. Dann hat sich erfüllt, wofür das Fest jetzt nur ein Zeichen ist.«

17 Jesus nahm einen Becher mit Wein, sprach das Dankgebet und sagte: »Nehmt diesen Becher und trinkt alle daraus! 18 Ich sage euch: Von jetzt an werde ich keinen Wein mehr trinken, bis Gottes Reich gekommen ist.«

19 Dann nahm er ein Brot. Er dankte Gott dafür, brach es in Stücke und gab es ihnen mit den Worten: »Das ist mein Leib, der für euch hingegeben wird. Feiert dieses Mahl immer wieder und denkt daran, was ich für euch getan habe, sooft ihr dieses Brot esst!«

20 Ebenso nahm er nach dem Essen den Becher mit Wein, reichte ihn den Jüngern und sagte: »Dieser Becher ist der neue Bund zwischen Gott und euch, der durch mein Blut besiegelt wird. Es wird zur Vergebung eurer Sünden vergossen. 21 Aber euch muss klar sein: Hier mit mir am Tisch ist der Mann, der mich verrät. 22 Der Menschensohn muss zwar sterben, wie es ihm von Gott bestimmt ist. Aber wehe seinem Verräter!« 23 Bestürzt fragte einer den anderen: »Wer von uns könnte so etwas tun?«

Wer ist der Wichtigste? (Matthäus 20,25‒28; Markus 10,42‒45)

24 Unter den Jüngern kam es zu einem Streit darüber, wer von ihnen wohl der Wichtigste sei. 25 Da sagte ihnen Jesus: »In dieser Welt unterdrücken die Herrscher ihre Völker, und rücksichtslose Machthaber lassen sich als Wohltäter feiern. 26 Aber bei euch soll es nicht so sein. Im Gegenteil: Der Erste unter euch soll sich allen anderen unterordnen, und wer euch führen will, muss allen dienen. 27 Wer ist denn bedeutender? Wer am Tisch sitzt und sich bedienen lässt oder wer bedient? Doch wohl derjenige, der sich bedienen lässt. Ich aber bin unter euch wie ein Diener.

28 Ihr seid mir in diesen Tagen der Gefahr und der Versuchung treu geblieben. 29 Deshalb verspreche ich euch: Ihr werdet mit mir zusammen in meinem Reich herrschen, das mein Vater mir übergeben hat. 30 Mit mir sollt ihr am selben Tisch essen und trinken. Ihr werdet auf Thronen sitzen und mit mir die zwölf Stämme Israels richten.«

Jesus kündigt seine Verleugnung durch Petrus an (Matthäus 26,31‒35; Markus 14,27‒31; Johannes 13,36‒38)

31 Zu Petrus gewandt sagte Jesus: »Simon, Simon, pass auf! Der Satan ist hinter euch her, und Gott hat ihm erlaubt, die Spreu vom Weizen zu trennen. 32 Aber ich habe für dich gebetet, dass du den Glauben nicht verlierst. Wenn du dann zu mir zurückgekehrt bist, so stärke den Glauben deiner Brüder!«

33 »Herr«, fuhr Petrus auf, »ich bin bereit, mit dir ins Gefängnis und sogar in den Tod zu gehen.« 34 Doch Jesus erwiderte: »Petrus, ich sage dir: Heute Nacht, noch ehe der Hahn kräht, wirst du dreimal geleugnet haben, mich zu kennen.«

Wie wird es weitergehen?

35 Dann fragte Jesus seine Jünger: »Als ich euch damals ohne Geld, Tasche und Schuhe aussandte,[a] hat euch da etwas gefehlt?« »Nein, gar nichts!«, beteuerten sie.

36 »Aber ab jetzt gilt etwas anderes: Nehmt euer Geld und Gepäck«, forderte er sie auf. »Wer kein Schwert besitzt, soll seinen Mantel verkaufen und sich eins beschaffen. 37 Denn jetzt ist die Zeit da, in der sich auch dieses Wort an mir erfüllen muss: ›Er wurde wie ein Verbrecher behandelt.‹[b] Alles, was in der Heiligen Schrift von mir geschrieben steht, geht nun in Erfüllung.« 38 »Herr«, riefen die Jünger, »wir haben hier zwei Schwerter.« Doch Jesus unterbrach sie: »Hört auf damit!«

Im Garten Gethsemane (Matthäus 26,30.36‒46; Markus 14,26.32‒42)

39 Dann verließ Jesus die Stadt und ging wie gewohnt zum Ölberg hinaus. Seine Jünger begleiteten ihn. 40 Dort angekommen sagte er zu ihnen: »Betet darum, dass ihr der kommenden Versuchung widerstehen könnt!« 41 Er entfernte sich ein kleines Stück von ihnen, kniete nieder 42 und betete: »Vater, wenn es dein Wille ist, dann lass diesen bitteren Kelch des Leidens an mir vorübergehen. Aber nicht was ich will, sondern was du willst, soll geschehen.«

43 Da erschien ein Engel vom Himmel und gab ihm neue Kraft. 44 Jesus litt Todesängste und betete so eindringlich, dass sein Schweiß wie Blut auf die Erde tropfte.

45 Als er nach dem Gebet aufstand und zu seinen Jüngern zurückkehrte, sah er, dass sie eingeschlafen waren, erschöpft von ihren Sorgen und ihrer Trauer. 46 Jesus weckte sie auf und rief: »Warum schlaft ihr? Steht auf und betet, damit ihr der Versuchung widerstehen könnt!«

Verrat und Verhaftung (Matthäus 26,47‒56; Markus 14,43‒49; Johannes 18,2‒11)

47 Noch während Jesus sprach, kam eine große Gruppe Männer. Sie wurden von Judas, einem der zwölf Jünger, angeführt. Judas ging auf Jesus zu, um ihn mit einem Kuss zu begrüßen.[c] 48 Aber Jesus fragte ihn: »Judas, willst du den Menschensohn mit einem Kuss verraten?«

49 Jetzt hatten auch die anderen Jünger begriffen, was vor sich ging. Aufgeregt riefen sie: »Herr, sollen wir dich mit dem Schwert verteidigen?« 50 Einer von ihnen zog gleich das Schwert, schlug auf den Diener des Hohenpriesters ein und hieb ihm das rechte Ohr ab. 51 Aber Jesus befahl: »Hört auf damit!« Er berührte das Ohr des Mannes und heilte ihn.

52 Dann fragte Jesus die obersten Priester, die Offiziere der Tempelwache und die führenden Männer des Volkes, die gekommen waren, um ihn festzunehmen: »Bin ich denn ein Verbrecher, dass ihr euch mit Schwertern und Knüppeln bewaffnen musstet? 53 Jeden Tag war ich im Tempel. Warum habt ihr mich nicht dort festgenommen? Aber jetzt ist eure Stunde da. Jetzt hat die Finsternis Macht.«

Petrus behauptet, Jesus nicht zu kennen (Matthäus 26,57‒58.69‒75; Markus 14,53‒54.66‒72; Johannes 18,12‒18.25‒27)

54 Die Männer verhafteten Jesus und führten ihn zum Palast des Hohenpriesters. Petrus folgte ihnen in sicherem Abstand. 55 Im Hof des Palastes zündeten sie ein Feuer an, um sich zu wärmen. Petrus setzte sich zu ihnen. 56 Im Schein des Feuers bemerkte ihn eine Dienerin und sah ihn prüfend an. »Der Mann da war auch mit Jesus zusammen!«, rief sie. 57 Doch Petrus widersprach: »Das ist unmöglich! Ich kenne ihn überhaupt nicht!«

58 Kurz darauf sah ihn ein anderer und meinte: »Du bist doch einer von seinen Freunden!« »Ausgeschlossen! Ich doch nicht!«, wehrte Petrus ab. 59 Nach etwa einer Stunde behauptete wieder einer: »Natürlich gehörte der hier zu Jesus; er kommt doch auch aus Galiläa!« 60 Aber Petrus stieß aufgebracht hervor: »Ich weiß nicht, wovon du redest.« In diesem Augenblick – noch während er das sagte – krähte ein Hahn.

61 Jesus drehte sich um und sah Petrus an. Da fielen Petrus die Worte ein, die der Herr zu ihm gesagt hatte: »Ehe der Hahn heute Nacht kräht, wirst du dreimal geleugnet haben, mich zu kennen.«

62 Er ging hinaus und weinte voller Verzweiflung.

Die Soldaten misshandeln Jesus (Matthäus 26,67‒68; Markus 14,65)

63 Die Männer, die Jesus bewachten, verhöhnten und schlugen ihn. 64 Sie verbanden ihm die Augen und spotteten: »Na, du Prophet! Sag uns, wer hat dich vorhin gerade geschlagen?« 65 Und noch viele andere Beleidigungen musste er über sich ergehen lassen.

Jesus vor Gericht (Matthäus 26,59‒66; Markus 14,55‒64; Johannes 18,19‒24)

66 Bei Tagesanbruch kamen die Mitglieder des Hohen Rates zusammen: die führenden Männer des Volkes, die obersten Priester und die Schriftgelehrten. Sie ließen Jesus vorführen 67 und forderten ihn auf: »Wenn du der Christus bist, der von Gott erwählte Retter, dann sag es uns!« Er erwiderte: »Wenn ich es euch sage, werdet ihr mir nicht glauben, 68 und wenn ich euch etwas frage, dann werdet ihr keine Antwort geben. 69 Doch von nun an wird der Menschensohn an der rechten Seite des allmächtigen Gottes sitzen.« 70 Empört schrien alle: »Willst du damit etwa sagen, dass du der Sohn Gottes bist?« Jesus antwortete: »Ihr habt recht, ich bin es!« 71 »Wozu brauchen wir da noch weitere Zeugen?«, riefen jetzt die Ankläger einstimmig. »Wir haben die Gotteslästerung doch aus seinem Mund gehört!«

New International Version

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus(A)

22 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,(B) 2 and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus,(C) for they were afraid of the people. 3 Then Satan(D) entered Judas, called Iscariot,(E) one of the Twelve. 4 And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard(F) and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. 5 They were delighted and agreed to give him money.(G) 6 He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.

The Last Supper(H)(I)(J)(K)(L)

7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.(M) 8 Jesus sent Peter and John,(N) saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”

9 “Where do you want us to prepare for it?” they asked.

10 He replied, “As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, 11 and say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 12 He will show you a large room upstairs, all furnished. Make preparations there.”

13 They left and found things just as Jesus had told them.(O) So they prepared the Passover.

14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles(P) reclined at the table.(Q) 15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.(R) 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”(S)

17 After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. 18 For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”

19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it,(T) and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”

20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant(U) in my blood, which is poured out for you.[a] 21 But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table.(V) 22 The Son of Man(W) will go as it has been decreed.(X) But woe to that man who betrays him!” 23 They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this.

24 A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest.(Y) 25 Jesus said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. 26 But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest,(Z) and the one who rules like the one who serves.(AA) 27 For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.(AB) 28 You are those who have stood by me in my trials. 29 And I confer on you a kingdom,(AC) just as my Father conferred one on me, 30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom(AD) and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(AE)

31 “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked(AF) to sift all of you as wheat.(AG) 32 But I have prayed for you,(AH) Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”(AI)

33 But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”(AJ)

34 Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”

35 Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals,(AK) did you lack anything?”

“Nothing,” they answered.

36 He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. 37 It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’[b];(AL) and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”

38 The disciples said, “See, Lord, here are two swords.”

“That’s enough!” he replied.

Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives(AM)

39 Jesus went out as usual(AN) to the Mount of Olives,(AO) and his disciples followed him. 40 On reaching the place, he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”(AP) 41 He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, knelt down(AQ) and prayed, 42 “Father, if you are willing, take this cup(AR) from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.”(AS) 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him.(AT) 44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.[c]

45 When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. 46 “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.”(AU)

Jesus Arrested(AV)

47 While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him, 48 but Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

49 When Jesus’ followers saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”(AW) 50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.

51 But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.

52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard,(AX) and the elders, who had come for him, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? 53 Every day I was with you in the temple courts,(AY) and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour(AZ)—when darkness reigns.”(BA)

Peter Disowns Jesus(BB)

54 Then seizing him, they led him away and took him into the house of the high priest.(BC) Peter followed at a distance.(BD) 55 And when some there had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat down with them. 56 A servant girl saw him seated there in the firelight. She looked closely at him and said, “This man was with him.”

57 But he denied it. “Woman, I don’t know him,” he said.

58 A little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.”

“Man, I am not!” Peter replied.

59 About an hour later another asserted, “Certainly this fellow was with him, for he is a Galilean.”(BE)

60 Peter replied, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just as he was speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 The Lord(BF) turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times.”(BG) 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.

The Guards Mock Jesus(BH)

63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and demanded, “Prophesy! Who hit you?” 65 And they said many other insulting things to him.(BI)

Jesus Before Pilate and Herod(BJ)(BK)(BL)

66 At daybreak the council(BM) of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and the teachers of the law, met together,(BN) and Jesus was led before them. 67 “If you are the Messiah,” they said, “tell us.”

Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me, 68 and if I asked you, you would not answer.(BO) 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.”(BP)

70 They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?”(BQ)

He replied, “You say that I am.”(BR)

71 Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.”
