John 18
1 Jesus, having said these things, went out with his disciples beyond the torrent Cedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, he and his disciples.
COMO Jesus hubo dicho estas cosas, salióse con sus discípulos tras el arroyo de Cedron, donde estaba un huerto, en el cual entró Jesus, y sus discípulos.
2 And Judas also, who delivered him up, knew the place, because Jesus was often there, in company with his disciples.
Y tambien Júdas, el que le entregaba, sabia aquel lugar, porque muchas veces Jesus se juntaba allí con sus discípulos.
3 Judas therefore, having got the band, and officers of the chief priests and Pharisees, comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
Júdas, pues, tomando una compañía [de soldados, ] y ministros de los pontífices y de los Fariséos, vino allí con linternas y antorchas, y con armas.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that were coming upon him, went forth and said to them, Whom seek ye?
Empero Jesus, sabiendo todas las cosas que habian de venir sobre él, salió delante, y díjoles: ¿A quién buscais?
5 They answered him, Jesus the Nazaraean. Jesus says to them, I am [he]. And Judas also, who delivered him up, stood with them.
Respondiéronle: A Jesus Nazareno. Díceles Jesus: Yo soy. (Y estaba tambien con ellos Júdas el que le entregaba.)
6 When therefore he said to them, I am [he], they went away backward and fell to the ground.
Y como les dijo: Yo soy, volvieron atrás, y cayeron en tierra.
7 He demanded of them therefore again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus the Nazaraean.
Volvióles, pues, á preguntar: ¿A quién buscais? Y ellos dijeron: A Jesus Nazareno.
8 Jesus answered, I told you that I am [he]: if therefore ye seek me, let these go away;
Respondió Jesus: [Ya] os he dicho que yo soy: pues si á mí buscais, dejad ir á estos:
9 that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, [As to] those whom thou hast given me, I have not lost one of them.
Para que se cumpliese la palabra que habia dicho: De los que me diste, ninguno de ellos perdí.
10 Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and smote the bondman of the high priest and cut off his right ear; and the bondman's name was Malchus.
Entónces Simon Pedro, que tenia espada, sacóla, é hirió al siervo del pontífice, y le cortó la oreja derecha. Y el siervo se llamaba Malco.
11 Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given me, shall I not drink it?
Jesus entónces dijo á Pedro: Mete tu espada en la vaina: el vaso que el Padre me ha dado, ¿no lo tengo de beber?
12 The band therefore, and the chiliarch, and the officers of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him:
Entónces la compañía [de los soldados] y el tribuno, y los ministros de los Judíos, prendieron á Jesus, y le ataron.
13 and they led him away to Annas first; for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
Y lleváronle primeramente á Anás, porque era suegro de Caifás, el cual era pontífice de aquel año.
14 But it was Caiaphas who counselled the Jews that it was better that one man should perish for the people.
Y era Caifás el que habia dado el consejo á los Judíos: Que era necesario que un hombre muriese por el pueblo.
15 Now Simon Peter followed Jesus, and the other disciple. But that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest;
Y seguia á Jesus Simon Pedro, y otro discípulo: y aquel discípulo era conocido del pontífice, y entró con Jesus al atrio del pontífice.
16 but Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the porteress and brought in Peter.
Mas Pedro estaba fuera á la puerta: y salió aquel discípulo que era conocido del pontífice, y habló á la portera y metió dentro á Pedro.
17 The maid therefore, who was porteress, says to Peter, Art thou also of the disciples of this man? He says, I am not.
Entónces la criada portera dijo á Pedro: ¿No eres tú tambien de los discípulos de este hombre? Dice él: No soy.
18 But the bondmen and officers, having made a fire of coals (for it was cold), stood and warmed themselves; and Peter was standing with them and warming himself.
Y estaban en pié los siervos y los ministros que habian allegado las ascuas, porque hacia frio, y calentábanse; y estaba tambien con ellos Pedro en pié, calentándose.
19 The high priest therefore demanded of Jesus concerning his disciples and concerning his doctrine.
Y el pontífice preguntó á Jesus [acerca] de sus discípulos, y de su doctrina.
20 Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I taught always in [the] synagogue and in the temple, where all the Jews come together, and in secret I have spoken nothing.
Jesus le respondió: Yo manifiestamente he hablado al mundo; yo siempre he enseñado en la sinagoga y en el templo, donde se juntan todos los Judíos; y nada he hablado en oculto.
21 Why demandest thou of me? Demand of those who have heard, what I have spoken to them; behold, they know what I have said.
¿Qué me preguntas á mí? Pregunta á los que han oido, qué les haya [yo] hablado: hé aquí, esos saben lo que yo he dicho.
22 But as he said these things, one of the officers who stood by gave a blow on the face to Jesus, saying, Answerest thou the high priest thus?
Y como él hubo dicho esto, uno de los criados que estaba allí dió una bofetada á Jesus, diciendo: ¿Así respondes al pontífice?
23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why smitest thou me?
Respondióle Jesus: Si he hablado mal, da testimonio del mal: y si bien ¿por qué me hieres?
24 Annas [then] had sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
Y Anás le habia enviado atado á Caifás pontífice.
25 But Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, Art thou also of his disciples? He denied, and said, I am not.
Estaba, pues, Pedro en pié calentándose; y dijéronle: ¿No eres tú de sus discípulos? El negó, y dijo: No soy.
26 One of the bondmen of the high priest, who was kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
Uno de los siervos del pontífice, pariente de aquel á quien Pedro habia cortado la oreja, [le] dice: ¿No te ví yo en el huerto con él?
27 Peter denied therefore again, and immediately [the] cock crew.
Y negó Pedro otra vez: y luego el gallo cantó.
28 They lead therefore Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium; and it was early morn. And they entered not into the praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but eat the passover.
Y llevaron á Jesus de Caifás al Pretorio; y era por la mañana: y ellos no entraron en el Pretorio por no ser contaminados, sino que comiesen la Pascua.
29 Pilate therefore went out to them and said, What accusation do ye bring against this man?
Entónces salió Pilato á ellos fuera, y dijo: ¿Qué acusacion traeis contra este hombre?
30 They answered and said to him, If this [man] were not an evildoer, we should not have delivered him up to thee.
Respondieron, y dijéronle: Si este no fuera malhechor, no te lo habríamos entregado.
31 Pilate therefore said to them, Take him, ye, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not permitted to us to put any one to death;
Díceles entónces Pilato: Tomadle vosotros y juzgadle segun vuestra ley. Y los Judíos le dijeron: A nosotros no es lícito matar á nadie.
32 that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled which he spoke, signifying what death he should die.
Para que se cumpliese el dicho de Jesus que habia dicho, dando á entender de qué muerte habia de morir.
33 Pilate therefore entered again into the praetorium and called Jesus, and said to him, Thou art the king of the Jews?
Así que Pilato volvió á entrar en el Pretorio y llama á Jesus, y díjole: ¿Eres tú el Rey de los Judíos?
34 Jesus answered [him], Dost thou say this of thyself, or have others said it to thee concerning me?
Respondióle Jesus: ¿Dices tú esto de tí mismo, ó te lo han dicho otro de mí?
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy nation and the chief priests have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?
Pilato respondió: ¿Soy yo Judío? Tu gente, y los pontífices, te han entregado á mí: ¿qué has hecho?
36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my servants had fought that I might not be delivered up to the Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence.
Respondió Jesus: Mi reino no es de este mundo: si de este mundo fuera mi reino, mis servidores pelearian para que [yo] no fuera entregado á los Judíos; ahora, pues, mi reino no es de aquí.
37 Pilate therefore said to him, Thou art then a king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest [it], that I am a king. I have been born for this, and for this I have come into the world, that I might bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.
Díjole entónces Pilato: ¿Luego Rey eres tú? Respondió Jesus: Tu dices que yo soy Rey: yo para esto he nacido, y para esto he venido al mundo, para dar testimonio á la verdad. Todo aquel que es [de la parte] de la verdad, oye mi voz.
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 no fault whatever in him.
Dícele Pilato: ¿Qué cosa es verdad? Y como hubo dicho esto, salió otra vez á los Judíos, y díceles: Yo no hallo en él algun crimen.
39 But ye have a custom that I release [some] one to you at the passover; will ye therefore that I release unto you the king of the Jews?
Empero vosotros teneis costumbre, que [yo] os suelte uno en la Pascua: ¿quereis, pues, que os suelte al Rey de los Judíos?
40 They cried therefore again all, saying, Not this [man], but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
Entónces todos dieron voces otra vez, diciendo: No á este, sino á Barrabas. Y Barrabas era ladron.
