Nowthe chief priestsand the wholeCouncilkept trying to obtainfalse testimonyagainstJesus,sothat they might put Him to death.
Do not deliverme over to the desireof my adversaries,For false witnesseshave risenagainst me, And such as breatheout violence.
[Like] a cluband a swordand a sharparrowIs a manwho bearsfalse~witnessagainst his neighbor.
"But I sayto you that everyonewho is angrywith his brothershall be guiltybefore the court;and whoeversaysto his brother,You good-for-nothing,'shall be guiltybefore the supreme court;and whoeversays,'You fool,'shall be guilty[enough to go] into the fieryhell.
The high priestthenquestionedJesusaboutHis disciples,and aboutHis teaching.
"Whydo you questionMe? Questionthosewho have heardwhatI spoketo them; they knowwhatI said."
