Matthew 26:56-60 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

56. But all this has happened so that the words of the prophets would come true." Then all the disciples left him and ran away.

57. Those who had arrested Jesus took him to Caiaphas, the high priest. The teachers of the law and the elders had come together there.

58. Not too far away, Peter followed Jesus. He went right up to the courtyard of the high priest. He entered and sat down with the guards to see what would happen.

59. The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for something to use against Jesus. They wanted to put him to death.

60. But they did not find any proof, even though many false witnesses came forward. Finally, two other witnesses came forward.
