Luke 22:61-71 ▼

61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word that the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”

62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.

63 The men who were holding Jesus began to mock Him and beat Him.

64 They blindfolded Him and kept demanding, “Prophesy! Who hit You?”

65 And they said many other blasphemous things against Him.

66 At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, met together. They led Jesus into their Sanhedrin and said,

67 “If You are the Christ, tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe.

68 And if I ask you a question, you will not 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 asked, “Are You then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.”

71 “Why do we need any more testimony?” they declared. “We have heard it for ourselves from His own lips.”
