Luke 22:66-71
New King James Version
Jesus Faces the Sanhedrin(A)
66 (B)As soon as it was day, (C)the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying, 67 (D)“If You are the Christ, tell us.”
But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will (E)by no means believe. 68 And if I [a]also ask you, you will by no means answer [b]Me or let Me go. 69 (F)Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.”
70 Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?”
So He said to them, (G)“You rightly say that I am.”
71 (H)And they said, “What further testimony do we need? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth.”

Jesus Before the Sanhedrin
66 And when day came, the council of elders of the people gathered, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away to their Sanhedrin,[a] 67 saying, “If you are the Christ, tell us!” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will never believe, 68 and if I ask you,[b] you will never answer! 69 But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.” 70 So they all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” And he said to them, “You say that I am.” 71 And they said, “Why do we have need of further testimony? For we ourselves have heard it[c] from his mouth!”
