18Now the servants and the officers were standing [there], having made a fire of coals; for it was cold; and they were warming themselves: and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.
19The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his teaching.
20Jesus answered him, I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and in secret spake I nothing.
21Why askest thou me? Ask them that have heard [me], what I spake unto them: behold, these know the things which I said.
22And when he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?
23Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?
24Annas therefore sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.
