So it was, from that time on, that half of my servants did the work, while the other half held the spears, the shields, the bows, and wore armor; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.

Then I warned them, and said to them, Why do you spend the night around the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you! From that time on they came no more on the Sabbath.

Blessed is the name of Jehovah from this time forth and forevermore!

From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that it was necessary for Him to go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.

And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore.

Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, What shall we do? For this Man performs many signs.

The kings of the earth take their stand, and the rulers take counsel together, against Jehovah and against His anointed, saying,

For I have heard the slander of many; fear is on every side; while they take counsel together against me, they have plotted to take away my life.

For my enemies speak against me; and those who lie in wait for my soul take counsel together,

And the Pharisees went out and immediately took counsel with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

When they heard this, they were cut to the heart and took counsel to do away with them.

Now after many days were past, the Jews plotted to do away with him.

But the chief priests took counsel to put Lazarus to death also,

In return for my love they are my adversaries, but I am in prayer.

Thus they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

Therefore the rulers said to the king, Please let this man be put to death. For in this way he weakens the hands of the men of war who remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, by speaking such words to them. For this man does not seek the welfare of this people, but their harm.

Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, If I declare it to you, will you not execute me to death? And if I give you advice, you will not give heed to me.

Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death,

After two days it was the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take Him by deceit and put Him to death.
