And those who seized Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered.

And Peter followed Him at a distance to the courtyard of the high priest; and entering within, he sat with the attendants to see the end.

Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus so that they might put Him to death,

And they did not find it, though many false witnesses came forward. But later two came

And said, This man said,  ¹I am able to destroy the temple of God and build it up in three days.

And the high priest stood up and said to Him, Do You answer  ¹nothing? What is it that these testify against You?

But Jesus remained  ¹silent. And the high priest said to Him, I charge You to swear by the living God to tell us  ²if You are the Christ, the Son of God.

Jesus said to him, You have said rightly. Nevertheless I say to you, From now on you will see the  ¹Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.

Then the high priest tore his garments, saying, He has blasphemed! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy.

What do you think? And they answered and said, He is worthy of death.

Then they spat in His face and beat Him with their fists, and others slapped Him,

Saying,  ¹Prophesy to us, Christ! Who is the one who hit You?

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a  ¹servant girl came to him and said, You also were with Jesus the Galilean.

But he denied it before all, saying, I do not know what you are talking about!

And after he had gone out to the porch, another girl saw him and said to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.

And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man!

And after a little while  ¹those who were standing there came to Peter and said, Surely you also are one of them, for your speech also makes it clear that you are.

Then he began to  ¹curse and to swear: I do not know the man! And immediately a rooster crowed.

And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, Before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times. And he went out and wept bitterly.

 ¹Then Jehovah called to Moses and  ²spoke to him out of the  ³Tent of Meeting, saying,

Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, When any one of you presents an  ¹offering to Jehovah, you shall present your offering from the  ²cattle, of the herd or of the flock.

If his offering is a  ¹burnt offering from the herd, he shall present it, a  ²male without  ²blemish; he shall present it at the  ³entrance of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before Jehovah.

And he shall lay his  ¹hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him, to make  ²expiation for him.

And he shall  ¹slaughter the young bull before Jehovah; and Aaron's sons the  ²priests shall present the  ³blood and sprinkle the blood on and around the altar that is at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.

And he shall  ¹skin the burnt offering and  ²cut it into its pieces.

And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange the wood in order on the fire.

Then Aaron's sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, the  ¹head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;

But its inward parts and its legs he shall  ¹wash with water. Then the priest shall  ²burn the whole on the altar, as a burnt offering, an offering by  ³fire, a satisfying  ⁴fragrance to Jehovah.

And if his offering is from the flock, of the sheep or of the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall present it, a male without blemish.

And he shall slaughter it on the side of the altar northward before Jehovah, and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle its blood on and around the altar.

And he shall  ¹cut it into its pieces with its head and its fat, and the priest shall arrange them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;

But the inward parts and the legs he shall wash with water. Then the priest shall present the whole and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

And if his offering to Jehovah is a burnt offering of  ¹birds, then he shall present his offering of turtledoves or of young pigeons.

And the priest shall present it at the altar and wring off its head and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar.

And he shall take away its crop with its feathers and cast it beside the altar toward the east, in the place of the  ¹ashes.

Then he shall tear it open by its wings without dividing it, and the priest shall burn it on the altar on the wood that is on the fire; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

And when anyone presents an offering of a  ¹meal offering to Jehovah, his offering shall be of  ²fine flour; and he shall pour  ³oil on it and put  ⁴frankincense on it.

Then he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests, and he shall take from it his handful of its fine flour and of its oil with all its frankincense. And the priest shall burn it as its  ¹memorial portion on the altar, an offering by  ²fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

And what is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'; it is a thing most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire.

And when you present an offering of a meal offering baked in the  ¹oven, it shall be of fine flour, unleavened  ²cakes  ³mingled with oil or unleavened  ⁴wafers anointed with oil.

And if your offering is a meal offering baked on a flat plate, it shall be of  ¹fine flour mingled with oil, unleavened.

You shall  ¹break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a meal offering.

And if your offering is a meal offering made in a pot, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.

And you shall bring to Jehovah the meal offering that is made of these things and present it to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar.

And the priest shall take up from the meal offering its memorial portion and shall burn it on the altar, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

And that which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'; it is a thing most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire.

No meal offering that you present to Jehovah shall be made with  ¹leaven, for you shall not burn any leaven or any  ²honey as an offering by fire to Jehovah.

You may present them to Jehovah, as an offering of firstfruits, but they shall not be offered up for a satisfying fragrance on the altar.

And every offering of your meal offering you shall season with  ¹salt, and you shall not omit the salt of the  ²covenant of your God from your meal offering; with all your offerings you shall present salt.

And if you present a meal offering of firstfruits to Jehovah, you shall present for the meal offering of your  ¹firstfruits new grain roasted with fire, crushed grain of the fresh ear.

And you shall put oil on it and place frankincense on it; it is a meal offering.

And the priest shall burn as its memorial portion some of its crushed grain and some of its oil, with all its frankincense, as an offering by fire to Jehovah.

And if his offering is a sacrifice of  ¹peace offerings, if he presents it from the  ²herd, whether male or female, he shall present it  ³without blemish before Jehovah.

And he shall  ¹lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it at the  ²entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the  ³blood on and around the altar.

And from the sacrifice of peace offerings he shall present an offering by fire to  ¹Jehovah, the  ²fat that covers the inward parts and all the fat that is on the inward parts;

And the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins; and the appendage on the liver, which he shall remove with the kidneys.

And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the  ¹burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire; it is an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Jehovah is from the flock, he shall present it, male or female, without blemish.

If he presents a  ¹lamb for his offering, then he shall present it before Jehovah.

And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it before the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle its blood on and around the altar.

And from the sacrifice of peace offerings he shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah, its fat, the entire fat tail which he shall remove close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the inward parts and all the fat that is on the inward parts;

And the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins; and the appendage on the liver, which he shall remove with the kidneys.

And the priest shall  ¹burn it on the altar; it is the food of the offering by fire to Jehovah.

And if his offering is a goat, then he shall present it before Jehovah.

And he shall lay his hand on its head and slaughter it before the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle its blood on and around the altar.

And from it he shall present his offering, as an offering by fire to Jehovah, the fat that covers the inward parts and all the fat that is on the inward parts;

And the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins; and the appendage on the liver, which he shall remove with the kidneys.

And the priest shall burn them on the altar; it is the food of the offering by fire for a satisfying fragrance; all the fat is Jehovah's.

It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places that you shall not eat any  ¹fat or any blood.
