Matthew 26:65-73 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

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.”

70. But he denied it before them all, saying, “I do not know what you say.”

71. And as he was going out into the porch, another girl saw him and said to those there, “And this one was with יהושע of Natsareth.”

72. But again he denied with an oath, “I do not know the Man!”

73. And after a while those who stood by came to him and said to Kĕpha, “Truly you are one of them too, for even your speech gives you away.”
