56 Many people did tell lies against Jesus, but they did not agree on what they said.
57 Finally, some men stood up and lied about him. They said,
58 “We heard him say he would tear down this temple that we built. He also claimed that in three days he would build another one without any help.”
59 But even then they did not agree on what they said.
60 The high priest stood up in the council and asked Jesus, “Why don't you say something in your own defence? Don't you hear the charges they are making against you?”
61 But Jesus kept quiet and did not say a word. The high priest asked him another question, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the glorious God?”
62 “Yes, I am!” Jesus answered.“Soon you will seethe Son of Mansitting at the right sideof God All-Powerful,and coming with the cloudsof heaven.”
