me.

26:56. Now all this was done that the scriptures of the prophets might
be fulfilled. Then the disciples, all leaving him, fled.

26:57. But they holding Jesus led him to Caiphas the high priest, where
the scribes and the ancients were assembled.

26:58. And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high
priest, And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the
end.

26:59. And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness
against Jesus, that they might put him to death.

26:60. And they found not, whereas many false witnesses had come in. And
last of all there came two false witnesses:

26:61. And they said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of
God and after three days to rebuild it.
