From a fully vowelled text

فَمَزَّقَ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ ثِيَابَهُ وَقَالَ: «مَا حَاجَتُنَا بَعْدُ إِلَى شُهُودٍ؟Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?Mark 14:63, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَقَالُوا: «مَا حَاجَتُنَا بَعْدُ إِلَى شَهَادَةٍ؟ لأَنَّنَا نَحْنُ سَمِعْنَا مِنْ فَمِهِ».And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.Luke 22:71, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «لاَ حَاجَةَ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَمْضُوا. أَعْطُوهُمْ أَنْتُمْ لِيَأْكُلُوا».But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.Matthew 14:16, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
