English Standard Version

⁶² And the high priest stood up and said, “Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?”^{[a] 63 (A)}But Jesus remained silent. ^(B)And the high priest said to him, ^(C)“I adjure you by ^(D)the living God, ^(E)tell us if you are ^(F)the Christ, ^(G)the Son of God.” ⁶⁴ Jesus said to him, ^(H)“You have said so. But I tell you, from now on ^(I)you will see the Son of Man ^(J)seated at the right hand of Power and ^(K)coming on the clouds of heaven.” ⁶⁵ Then the high priest ^(L)tore his robes and said, ^(M)“He has uttered blasphemy. What further witnesses do we need? You have now heard his blasphemy. ⁶⁶ What is your judgment?” They answered, ^(N)“He deserves death.” ⁶⁷ Then ^(O)they spit in his face ^(P)and ^(Q)struck him. And some slapped him, ⁶⁸ saying, “Prophesy to us, you ^(R)Christ! Who is it that struck you?”
