62. And the high priest stood up and said to Him, “Have You no answer to make? What do these witness against You?”

64. יהושע said to him, “You have said it. Besides I say to you, from now you shall see the Son of Aḏam sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of the heaven.”

65. Then the high priest tore his garments, saying, “He has blasphemed! Why do we need any more witnesses? See, now you have heard His blasphemy!

66. “What do you think?” And they answering, said, “He is liable to death.”

67. Then they spat in His face and beat Him, and others slapped Him,

68. saying, “Prophesy to us, Messiah! Who is the one who struck You?”

69. And Kĕpha sat outside in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him, saying, “And you were with יהושע of Galil.”
