Legacy Standard Bible
55 Now the chief priests and the whole [a](A)Sanhedrin were seeking to obtain testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, and they were not finding any. 56 For many were giving false testimony against Him, but their testimony was not consistent. 57 And some, standing up, were giving false testimony against Him, saying, 58 “We ourselves heard Him say, ‘(B)I will destroy this [b]sanctuary made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’” 59 And not even in this way was their testimony consistent. 60 And the high priest stood up in their midst and questioned Jesus, saying, “You answer nothing? What are these men testifying against You?” 61 (C)But He kept silent and did not answer. (D)Again the high priest was questioning Him and *said to Him, “Are You the [c]Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?” 62 And Jesus said, “I am; and you shall see (E)the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and (F)coming with the clouds of heaven.” 63 (G)And tearing his tunics, the high priest *said, “What further need do we have of witnesses? 64 You have heard the (H)blasphemy; how does it seem to you?” And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death. 65 And some began to (I)spit at Him, and [d](J)to blindfold Him, and to beat Him with their fists, and to say to Him, “(K)Prophesy!” And the officers [e]received Him with [f]slaps in the face.

New International Version
55 The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin(A) were looking for evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death, but they did not find any. 56 Many testified falsely against him, but their statements did not agree.
57 Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him: 58 “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple made with human hands and in three days will build another,(B) not made with hands.’” 59 Yet even then their testimony did not agree.
60 Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?” 61 But Jesus remained silent and gave no answer.(C)
Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”(D)
62 “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”(E)
63 The high priest tore his clothes.(F) “Why do we need any more witnesses?” he asked. 64 “You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?”
They all condemned him as worthy of death.(G) 65 Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.(H)
