Matthew 26:59-61

Good News Translation

⁵⁹ The chief priests and the whole Council tried to find some false evidence against Jesus to put him to death; ⁶⁰ but they could not find any, even though many people came forward and told lies about him. Finally two men stepped up ^61 (A)and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to tear down God's Temple and three days later build it back up.’”
