Matthew 26:62-69 Common English Bible (CEB)

62. Then the high priest stood and said to Jesus, "Aren’t you going to respond to the testimony these people have brought against you?"

63. But Jesus was silent. The high priest said, "By the living God, I demand that you tell us whether you are the Christ, God’s Son."

64. "You said it," Jesus replied. "But I say to you that from now on you’ll see the Human One sitting on the right side of the Almighty and coming on the heavenly clouds."

65. Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "He’s insulting God! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, you’ve heard his insult against God.

66. What do you think?" And they answered, "He deserves to die!"

67. Then they spit in his face and beat him. They hit him

68. and said, "Prophesy for us, Christ! Who hit you?"

69. Meanwhile, Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A servant woman came and said to him, "You were also with Jesus the Galilean."
