55In that hour said Jesus to the multitudes, `As against a robber ye did come forth, with swords and sticks, to take me! daily with you I was sitting teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hold on me;
56but all this hath come to pass, that the Writings of the prophets may be fulfilled;` then all the disciples, having left him, fled.
57And those laying hold on Jesus led [him] away unto Caiaphas the chief priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together,
58and Peter was following him afar off, unto the court of the chief priest, and having gone in within, he was sitting with the officers, to see the end.
59And the chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, were seeking false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death,
60and they did not find; and many false witnesses having come near, they did not find; and at last two false witnesses having come near,
61said, `This one said, I am able to throw down the sanctuary of God, and after three days to build it.`
