58 Peter followed from a distance, as far as the courtyard of the High Priest's house. He went into the courtyard and sat down with the guards to see how it would all come out.
59 The chief priests and the whole Council tried to find some false evidence against Jesus to put him to death;
60 but they could not find any, even though many people came forward and told lies about him. Finally two men stepped up
61 and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to tear down God's Temple and three days later build it up again.’ ”
62 The High Priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Have you no answer to give to this accusation against you?”
63 But Jesus kept quiet. Again the High Priest spoke to him, “In the name of the living God I now put you on oath: tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”
64 Jesus answered him, “So you say. But I tell all of you: from this time on you will see the Son of Man sitting on the right of the Almighty and coming on the clouds of heaven!”
