John 18
1 After speaking these things, Jesus went forth with his disciples on the other side of the brook Kidron, where there was a garden into which he entered, he and his disciples.
These things having said, Jesus went forth with his disciples beyond the brook of Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples,
2 Now Judas, the man betraying him, had also known the place, because Jesus also often gathered there with his disciples.
and Judas also, who delivered him up, had known the place, because many times did Jesus assemble there with his disciples.
3 Judas therefore having received the band and subordinates from the chief priests and the Pharisees, comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
Judas, therefore, having taken the band and officers out of the chief priests and Pharisees, doth come thither with torches and lamps, and weapons;
4 Jesus therefore knowing all the things that were coming upon him, after going forth, he says to them, Whom seek ye?
Jesus, therefore, knowing all things that are coming upon him, having gone forth, said to them, 'Whom do ye seek?'
5 They answered him, Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus says to them, I am he. And Judas, the man betraying him had also stood with them.
they answered him, 'Jesus the Nazarene;' Jesus saith to them, 'I am [he];' — and Judas who delivered him up was standing with them; —
6 When therefore he said to them, I am he, they went backward and fell to the ground.
when, therefore, he said to them — 'I am [he],' they went away backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Again therefore he questioned them, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus the Nazarene.
Again, therefore, he questioned them, 'Whom do ye seek?' and they said, 'Jesus the Nazarene;'
8 Jesus answered, I told you that I am. If therefore ye seek me, allow these men to go,
Jesus answered, 'I said to you that I am [he]; if, then, me ye seek, suffer these to go away;'
9 so that the word that he spoke might be fulfilled, Of whom thou have given me, I lost, no, not one of them.
that the word might be fulfilled that he said — 'Those whom Thou hast given to me, I did not lose of them even one.'
10 Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's bondman, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant's name was Malchus.
Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the chief priest's servant, and cut off his right ear — and the name of the servant was Malchus —
11 Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath. The cup that the Father has given me, shall I, no, not drink it?
Jesus, therefore, said to Peter, 'Put the sword into the sheath; the cup that the Father hath given to me, may I not drink it?'
12 So the band, and the chief captain, and the subordinates of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound him,
The band, therefore, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, took hold on Jesus, and bound him,
13 and led him away first to Annas. For he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
and they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest of that year,
14 Now Caiaphas was the man who counseled the Jews that it was expedient for one man to die on behalf of the people.
and Caiaphas was he who gave counsel to the Jews, that it is good for one man to perish for the people.
15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, also the other disciple. But that disciple was known to the high priest, and he went in with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.
And following Jesus was Simon Peter, and the other disciple, and that disciple was known to the chief priest, and he entered with Jesus to the hall of the chief priest,
16 But Peter had stood near the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought in Peter.
and Peter was standing at the door without, therefore went forth the other disciple who was known to the chief priest, and he spake to the female keeping the door, and he brought in Peter.
17 Therefore the servant girl (the doorkeeper) says to Peter, Are thou not also of this man's disciples? That man says, I am not.
Then said the maid keeping the door to Peter, 'Art thou also of the disciples of this man?' he saith, 'I am not;'
18 Now the bondmen and the subordinates had stood, having made a fire of coals because it was cold, and they were warming themselves. And Peter was also standing with them warming himself.
and the servants and the officers were standing, having made a fire of coals, because it was cold, and they were warming themselves, and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.
19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his doctrine.
The chief priests, therefore, questioned Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching;
20 Jesus answered him, I spoke in public to the world. I always taught in a synagogue, and in the temple where the Jews always gather together, and I spoke nothing in secret.
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 question thou me? Question those who have heard what I said to them. Behold, these know the things that I said.
why me dost thou question? question those having heard what I spake to them; lo, these have known what I said.'
22 And when he said these things, one of the subordinates standing by gave a slap to Jesus, saying, Answer thou the high priest this way?
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 spoke wrongly, testify about the wrong, but if correctly, why strike me?
Jesus answered him, 'If I spake ill, testify concerning the ill; and if well, why me dost thou smite?'
24 Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.
25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. Therefore they said to him, Are thou not also of his disciples? That man therefore denied, and said, I am not.
And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself, they said then to him, 'Art thou also of his disciples?' he denied, and said, 'I am not.'
26 One of the bondmen of the high priest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did I not see thee in the garden with him?
One of the servants of the chief priest, being kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, 'Did not I see thee in the garden with him?'
27 Peter therefore denied again, and straightaway a cock sounded.
again, therefore, Peter denied, and immediately a cock crew.
28 They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas to the Praetorium. And it was early, and they did not enter into the Praetorium, so that they would not be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.
They led, therefore, Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium, and it was early, and they themselves did not enter into the praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the passover;
29 Pilate therefore went out to them, and said, What accusation do ye bring against this man?
Pilate, therefore, went forth unto them, and said, 'What accusation do ye bring against this man?'
30 They answered and said to him, If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered him up to thee.
they answered and said to him, 'If he were not an evil doer, we had not delivered him to thee.'
31 Pilate therefore said to them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not permitted for us to kill any man,
Pilate, therefore, said to them, 'Take ye him — ye — and according to your law judge him;' the Jews, therefore, said to him, 'It is not lawful to us to put any one to death;'
32 so that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled that he spoke, signifying what kind of death he was going to die.
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled which he said, signifying by what death he was about to die.
33 Pilate therefore again entered into the Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said to him, Are thou the king of the Jews?
Pilate, therefore, entered into the praetorium again, and called Jesus, and said to him, 'Thou art the King of the Jews?'
34 Jesus answered, Do thou say this of thyself, or did others tell thee about me?
Jesus answered him, 'From thyself dost thou say this? or did others say it to thee about me?'
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee to me. What have thou done?
Pilate answered, 'Am I a Jew? thy nation, and the chief priests did deliver thee up to me; what didst thou?'
36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world my subordinates would have fought so that I would not be delivered to the Jews, but now my kingdom is not from here.
Jesus answered, 'My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my officers had struggled that I might not be delivered up to Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence.'
37 Pilate therefore said to him, Then thou are a king? Jesus answered, Thou say that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, that I would testify to the truth. Every man who is of the truth hears my voice.
Pilate, therefore, said to him, 'Art thou then a king?' Jesus answered, 'Thou dost say [it]; because a king I am, I for this have been born, and for this I have come to the world, that I may testify to the truth; every one who is of the truth, doth hear my voice.'
38 Pilate says to him, What is truth? And having said this, he went out again to the Jews, and says to them, I find not one cause in him.
Pilate saith to him, 'What is truth?' and this having said, again he went forth unto the Jews, and saith to them, 'I do find no fault in him;
39 But there is a custom for you that I should release to you one man at the Passover. Do ye wish therefore I would release to you the king of the Jews?
and ye have a custom that I shall release to you one in the passover; will ye, therefore, [that] I shall release to you the king of the Jews?'
40 They all cried out again therefore, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. But Barabbas was a robber.
therefore they all cried out again, saying, 'Not this one — but Barabbas;' and Barabbas was a robber.
