66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the princes of the priests and the scribes came together and led him into their council, saying, 67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe; 68 and if I also ask you, ye will not answer me nor let me go; 69 but from now on the Son of man shall sit on the right hand of the power of God. 70 Then they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I AM. 71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
