Mark 14:54-72

Young's Literal Translation

⁵⁴ and Peter afar off did follow him, to the inside of the hall of the chief priest, and he was sitting with the officers, and warming himself near the fire.

⁵⁵ And the chief priests and all the sanhedrim were seeking against Jesus testimony -- to put him to death, and they were not finding,

⁵⁶ for many were bearing false testimony against him, and their testimonies were not alike.

⁵⁷ And certain having risen up, were bearing false testimony against him, saying --

⁵⁸ `We heard him saying -- I will throw down this sanctuary made with hands, and by three days, another made without hands I will build;'

⁵⁹ and neither so was their testimony alike.

⁶⁰ And the chief priest, having risen up in the midst, questioned Jesus, saying, `Thou dost not answer anything! what do these testify against thee?'

⁶¹ and he was keeping silent, and did not answer anything. Again the chief priest was questioning him, and saith to him, `Art thou the Christ -- the Son of the Blessed?'

⁶² and Jesus said, `I am; and ye shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power, and coming with the clouds, of the heaven.'

⁶³ And the chief priest, having rent his garments, saith, `What need have we yet of witnesses?

⁶⁴ Ye heard the evil speaking, what appeareth to you?' and they all condemned him to be worthy of death,

⁶⁵ and certain began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say to him, `Prophesy;' and the officers were striking him with their palms.

⁶⁶ And Peter being in the hall beneath, there doth come one of the maids of the chief priest,

⁶⁷ and having seen Peter warming himself, having looked on him, she said, `And thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth!'

⁶⁸ and he denied, saying, `I have not known [him], neither do I understand what thou sayest;' and he went forth without to the porch, and a cock crew.

⁶⁹ And the maid having seen him again, began to say to those standing near -- `This is of them;'

⁷⁰ and he was again denying. And after a little again, those standing near said to Peter, `Truly thou art of them, for thou also art a Galilean, and thy speech is alike;'

⁷¹ and he began to anathematize, and to swear -- `I have not known this man of whom ye speak;'

⁷² and a second time a cock crew, and Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him -- `Before a cock crow twice, thou mayest deny me thrice;' and having thought thereon -- he was weeping.
