But the' cudnae fin onie. 56Fer tha mair monies a yin wutnesst agin hïm, whut the' cum oot wi dïdnae cumpluthèr. 57-58In tha enn, some o tha wutnesses stud up an saed, “We heerd hïm oorsels. He saed, ‘A'll pu doon thïs Hoose o God bigged bi man. An ïn thrie days A'll big anither yin, an ït'll no be tha han o man that bigs ït.’ ” 59But thair stories dïdnae cumpluthèr. 60An tha Heich Preesht ris tae hïs feet ïn tha mïddle o thaim aa. An he axt Jesus, “Hae ye nae answer tae these chairges? Whut hae ye tae say fer yersel?” 61But Jesus hel hïs tung. Sae tha Heich Preesht püt anither question tae hïm, “Ir ye tha Christ, tha Sinn o tha Blissit Yin?” 62An Jesus saed, “A am. An ye wull see me, tha Sinn o Man, saitit at tha richt han o tha Michtie Yin, an cumin ïn tha cloods o heiven.” 63Wi that, tha Heich Preesht tore hïs claes, an saed, “Whut need hae we o onie mair wutnesses? 64Yis hae aa heerd hïs blesphemie fer yersels. Whut dae yis jalouse o ït?” An the' aa saed he desarved tae be püt tae deith. 65An some o thaim fell tae spïttin on hïm.

Jist then a roostèr craad. 69An tha sarvin lass saen hïm agane, an yinst mair she stairtit tellin tha ithers hingin aboot, “Thair's nae doot thïs man's yin o thaim!” 70Petèr denied ït yinst mair.

An richt awa Petèr haed mine o tha wurds Jesus spauk tae hïm: “Afore tha roostèr craas twice, ye wull deny me thrie times.” At tha verie thocht o ït, he brauk doon an wep sair.
