40:026:067 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted
him; and others
smote
him with the palms of their hands,
40:026:068 Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ,
Who is he that smote
thee?
40:026:069 Now Peter sat without in the palace:
and a damsel came unto
him,
saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
40:026:070 But he denied before them all, saying,
I know not what thou
sayest.
40:026:071 And when he was gone out into the porch,
another maid saw him,
and
said unto them that were there, This fellow was also
with
Jesus
of Nazareth.
40:026:072 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
40:026:073 And after a while came unto him they that
stood by, and said
to
Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech
bewrayeth
thee.
40:026:074 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying,
I know not the
man.
And immediately the cock crew.
40:026:075 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus,
which said unto him,
Before
the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And
he went
out,
and wept bitterly.
40:027:001 When the morning was come, all the chief
priests and elders of
the
people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
40:027:002 And when they had bound him, they led him
away, and delivered
him
to Pontius Pilate the governor.
40:027:003 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when
he saw that he was
condemned,
repented himself, and brought again the thirty
pieces
of silver to the chief priests and elders,
40:027:004 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed
the innocent
blood.
And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
40:027:005 And he cast down the pieces of silver in
the temple, and
departed,
and went and hanged himself.
40:027:006 And the chief priests took the silver pieces,
and said, It is
not
lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it
is
the
price of blood.
40:027:007 And they took counsel, and bought with
them the potter’s
field,
to bury strangers in.
40:027:008 Wherefore that field was called, The field
of blood, unto this
day.
40:027:009 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken
by Jeremy the
prophet,
saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver,
the
price of him that was valued, whom they of the children
of
Israel
did value;
40:027:010 And gave them for the potter’s field,
as the Lord appointed
me.
40:027:011 And Jesus stood before the governor:
and the governor asked
him,
saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus
said
unto
him, Thou sayest.
