19 ^gThe high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. 20 Jesus answered him, “I have spoken ^hopenly ⁱto the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. ^jI have said nothing in secret. 21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them; they know what I said.” 22 When he had said these things, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, ^k“Is that how you answer the high priest?” 23 Jesus answered him, “If what I said is wrong, bear witness about the wrong; but if what I said is right, why do you strike me?” 24 ^lAnnas then sent him bound to ^lCaiaphas the high priest.

25 ^mNow Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “You also are not one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it and said, “I am not.” 26 One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of ⁿthe man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Did I not see you ^oin the garden with him?” 27 Peter again denied it, and ^pat once a rooster crowed.
