Matthew 26:63
Douay-Rheims
But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou be the Christ the Son of God.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
The high-priest, abandoning the testimony as worthless, seeks to elicit a confession from Christ Himself. To force it, he makes use of the most solemn adjuration, and questions Him on the weightiest point, whether he claimed to be the Messiah, nay, the Son of God.
