One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, together with the elders, came up to him.

One day Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courtyard. He was announcing the good news to them. The chief priests and the teachers of the law came up to him. The elders came with them.

One day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up

One day as he was teaching the people in the temple and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came

On one of the days while He was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders confronted Him,

Now it happened on one of those days, as He taught the people in the temple and preached the gospel, that the chief priests and the scribes, together with the elders, confronted Him

And it came to pass, on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, there came upon him the chief priests and the scribes with the elders;

One day as He was teaching the people in the temple complex and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came up

And it came to pass,[ that] on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon[ him] with the elders,

Now one day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and the experts in the law with the elders came up

On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.

After that, he taught daily in the Temple, but the leading priests, the teachers of religious law, and the other leaders of the people began planning how to kill him.But they could think of nothing, because all the people hung on every word he said.

Soon afterward Jesus began a tour of the nearby towns and villages, preaching and announcing the Good News about the Kingdom of God. He took his twelve disciples with him,

Jesus replied,“ Everyone knows what I teach. I have preached regularly in the synagogues and the Temple, where the people gather. I have not spoken in secret.

When Jesus returned to the Temple and began teaching, the leading priests and elders came up to him. They demanded,“ By what authority are you doing all these things? Who gave you the right?”“ I’ll tell you by what authority I do these things if you answer one question,” Jesus replied.“ Did John’s authority to baptize come from heaven, or was it merely human?” They talked it over among themselves.“ If we say it was from heaven, he will ask us why we didn’t believe John.But if we say it was merely human, we’ll be mobbed because the people believe John was a prophet.”So they finally replied,“ We don’t know.” And Jesus responded,“ Then I won’t tell you by what authority I do these things.

This is how Aaron’s descendants, the priests, were divided into groups for service. The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and they had no sons. So only Eleazar and Ithamar were left to carry on as priests.With the help of Zadok, who was a descendant of Eleazar, and of Ahimelech, who was a descendant of Ithamar, David divided Aaron’s descendants into groups according to their various duties.Eleazar’s descendants were divided into sixteen groups and Ithamar’s into eight, for there were more family leaders among the descendants of Eleazar.All tasks were assigned to the various groups by means of sacred lots so that no preference would be shown, for there were many qualified officials serving God in the sanctuary from among the descendants of both Eleazar and Ithamar.Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, acted as secretary and wrote down the names and assignments in the presence of the king, the officials, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the family leaders of the priests and Levites. The descendants of Eleazar and Ithamar took turns casting lots.The first lot fell to Jehoiarib. The second lot fell to Jedaiah.The third lot fell to Harim. The fourth lot fell to Seorim.The fifth lot fell to Malkijah. The sixth lot fell to Mijamin.The seventh lot fell to Hakkoz. The eighth lot fell to Abijah.The ninth lot fell to Jeshua. The tenth lot fell to Shecaniah.The eleventh lot fell to Eliashib. The twelfth lot fell to Jakim.The thirteenth lot fell to Huppah. The fourteenth lot fell to Jeshebeab.The fifteenth lot fell to Bilgah. The sixteenth lot fell to Immer.The seventeenth lot fell to Hezir. The eighteenth lot fell to Happizzez.The nineteenth lot fell to Pethahiah. The twentieth lot fell to Jehezkel.The twenty first lot fell to Jakin. The twenty second lot fell to Gamul.The twenty third lot fell to Delaiah. The twenty fourth lot fell to Maaziah.Each group carried out its appointed duties in the house of the Lord according to the procedures established by their ancestor Aaron in obedience to the commands of the Lord, the God of Israel.These were the other family leaders descended from Levi: From the descendants of Amram, the leader was Shebuel. From the descendants of Shebuel, the leader was Jehdeiah.From the descendants of Rehabiah, the leader was Isshiah.From the descendants of Izhar, the leader was Shelomith. From the descendants of Shelomith, the leader was Jahath.From the descendants of Hebron, Jeriah was the leader, Amariah was second, Jahaziel was third, and Jekameam was fourth.From the descendants of Uzziel, the leader was Micah. From the descendants of Micah, the leader was Shamir,along with Isshiah, the brother of Micah. From the descendants of Isshiah, the leader was Zechariah.From the descendants of Merari, the leaders were Mahli and Mushi. From the descendants of Jaaziah, the leader was Beno.From the descendants of Merari through Jaaziah, the leaders were Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri.From the descendants of Mahli, the leader was Eleazar, though he had no sons.From the descendants of Kish, the leader was Jerahmeel.From the descendants of Mushi, the leaders were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the descendants of Levi in their various families.Like the descendants of Aaron, they were assigned to their duties by means of sacred lots, without regard to age or rank. Lots were drawn in the presence of King David, Zadok, Ahimelech, and the family leaders of the priests and the Levites.

This roused the people, the elders, and the teachers of religious law. So they arrested Stephen and brought him before the high council.

While Peter and John were speaking to the people, they were confronted by the priests, the captain of the Temple guard, and some of the Sadducees.

Then Jesus said to the crowd,“ Am I some dangerous revolutionary, that you come with swords and clubs to arrest me? Why didn’t you arrest me in the Temple? I was there teaching every day.

Again they entered Jerusalem. As Jesus was walking through the Temple area, the leading priests, the teachers of religious law, and the elders came up to him.They demanded,“ By what authority are you doing all these things? Who gave you the right to do them?”“ I’ll tell you by what authority I do these things if you answer one question,” Jesus replied.“ Did John’s authority to baptize come from heaven, or was it merely human? Answer me!”They talked it over among themselves.“ If we say it was from heaven, he will ask why we didn’t believe John.But do we dare say it was merely human?” For they were afraid of what the people would do, because everyone believed that John was a prophet.So they finally replied,“ We don’t know.” And Jesus responded,“ Then I won’t tell you by what authority I do these things.”
