Matthew 26:59-63

New American Standard Bible

⁵⁹ Now the chief priests and the entire ^[a](A)Council kept trying to obtain false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put Him to death. ⁶⁰ They did not find any, even though many false witnesses came forward. But later on ^(B)two came forward, ⁶¹ and said, “This man stated, ‘^(C)I am able to destroy the ^[b]temple of God and to rebuild it ^[c]in three days.’” ⁶² The high priest stood up and said to Him, “Do You offer no answer for what these men are testifying against You?” ⁶³ But ^(D)Jesus kept silent. ^(E)And the high priest said to Him, “I ^(F)place You under oath by ^(G)the living God, to tell us whether You are the ^[d]Christ, ^(H)the Son of God.”
