Συνήγαγον οὖν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι συνέδριον, καὶ ἔλεγον· Τί ποιοῦμεν ὅτι οὗτος ὁ ἄνθρωπος πολλὰ ποιεῖ σημεῖα; ἐὰν ἀφῶμεν αὐτὸν οὕτως, πάντες πιστεύσωσιν εἰς αὐτόν, καὶ ἐλεύσονται οἱ Ῥωμαῖοι καὶ ἀροῦσιν ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν τόπον καὶ τὸ ἔθνος.. Ancient Greek.

εἶτ’ ἐπεὶ πάντων προέκρινον τὴν λατρείαν καὶ τὸν τόπον καὶ τὴν τοῦ ἔθνους σύστασιν τῶν νομισθέντων ἂν εἶναι κρειττόνων παρὰ ταῦτα, διὰ τοῦτο σκοποῦσιν κατὰ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ἵνα αὐτὸν μὴ ἐάσωσιν ζῆν.
