And those who stood by said, Do you revile God’s high priest?
Blessed are you, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Then said Paul to him, God shall strike you, you whitened wall: for you sit to judge me according to the law, and command me to be struck contrary to the law?
Then said Paul, I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.
