20 Jesus answered him, 'I spake freely to the world, I did always teach in a synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews do always come together; and in secret I spake nothing;
21 why me dost thou question? question those having heard what I spake to them; lo, these have known what I said.'
22 And he having said these things, one of the officers standing by did give Jesus a slap, saying, 'Thus dost thou answer the chief priest?'
23 Jesus answered him, 'If I spake ill, testify concerning the ill; and if well, why me dost thou smite?'
24 Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.
