John 18
1 Jesus saying these things, went out with His disciples beyond the brook of Kidron, where there was a garden, into which He and His disciples came.
When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, and his disciples.
2 And Judas, the one having betrayed Him; knew the place: because frequently Jesus with His disciples resorted thither.
And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus often resorted thither with his disciples.
3 Then Judas, having taken a band and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, comes thither with lanterns and torches and arms.
Judas then, having received a band [of men] and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns, and torches, and weapons.
4 Then Jesus, knowing all things which are coming on Him, came out, says to them, Whom do you seek?
Jesus therefore, knowing all things that were coming upon him, went forth, and said to them, Whom seek ye?
5 They responded to Him, Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus says to them, I am He. And Judas also, the one having betrayed Him, stood with them.
They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them, I am [he]. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.
6 Then when He said to them, I am He, they went back, and fell on the ground.
As soon then as he had said to them, I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Then He again asked them, Whom do you seek? And they said, Jesus the Nazarene.
Then he asked them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
8 Jesus responded, I told you that I am He: if then you seek me, let these depart.
Jesus answered, I have told you that I am [he]: If therefore ye seek me, let these go away:
9 In order that the word which He spoke might be fulfilled, that, I have lost none of those whom thou hast given unto me.
That the saying might be fulfilled which he spoke, Of them whom thou gavest to me, I have lost none.
10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the name to that servant was Malchus.
Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
11 Then Jesus said to Peter, Put thy sword in the scabbard: the cup which the Father gave me, shall I not drink it?
Then said Jesus to Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
12 Then the band and chiliarch, and the officers of the Jews, took Jesus and bound Him.
Then the band, and the captain, and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,
13 And they led Him first to Annas; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
And led him away to Annas first, (for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was the high priest that same year.)
14 And Caiaphas was the one counseling the Jews, that it is profitable that one man die for the people.
Now Caiaphas was he who gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 And Simon Peter and the other disciples followed Jesus. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and came with Jesus into the court of the high priest.
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and [so did] another disciple. That disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.
16 And Peter stood without at the door. Then the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, came out and spoke to the porter, and led in Peter.
But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple who was known to the high priest, and spoke to her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.
17 And then the maidservant porter says to Peter, Art thou not one of the disciples of this man? He says, I am not.
Then saith the damsel that kept the door to Peter, Art not thou also [one] of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.
18 And the servants and officers, having made a fire; because it was cold; were standing by it, and warming. And Peter was standing with them, and warming.
And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; (for it was cold) and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.
19 Then the high priest asked Jesus concerning His disciples and concerning His teaching.
The high priest then asked Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his doctrine.
20 And Jesus said to him, I have spoken openly to the world. I always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and I spoke nothing in secret.
Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.
21 Why do you ask me? ask those who have heard, what I said to them: behold, they know what I said.
Why dost thou ask me? ask them who heard me, what I have said to them: behold, they know what I have said.
22 And He speaking these things, one of the officers standing by gave Jesus a slap, saying, Do you thus answer the high priest?
And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers who stood by, struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?
23 Jesus responded to him, If I spoke wickedly, witness concerning the wickedness: but if beautifully, why do you smite me?
Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear testimony of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?
24 Then Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
(Now Annas had sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.)
25 And Simon Peter was standing and warming: and they said to him, Art thou not one of His disciples? He denied, and said, I am not.
And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore to him, Art not thou also [one] of his disciples? He denied [it], and said, I am not.
26 And one of the servants of the chief 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 high priest (being the kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off) saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
27 Then Peter again denied, and immediately the cock crew.
Peter then denied again, and immediately the cock crowed.
28 Then they lead Jesus from Caiaphas to the judgment hall: and it was morning. And they did not come into the judgment hall, in order that they might not be polluted, but that they might eat the passover.
Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment-hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.
29 Then Pilate came out to them, and says, What accusation do you bring against this man?
Pilate then went out to them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?
30 They responded and said to him, If He were not an evil doer, we would not deliver Him to you.
They answered and said to him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up to thee.
31 Then Pilate said to them. You take Him, and judge Him according to your law. Then the Jews said to him, It is not lawful for us to kill any one.
Then said Pilate to them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
32 In order that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which He spoke, signifying by what death He was about to die.
That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying what death he should die.
33 Then Pilate came again into the judgment hall, and asked Jesus, and said to Him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
Then Pilate entered into the judgment-hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
34 Jesus responded, Do you speak this of yourself, or did others tell you concerning me?
Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing from thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?
35 Pilate responded, Whether am I a Jew? thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee to me: what hast thou done?
Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee to me: What hast thou done?
36 Jesus responded, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight for me, in order that I might not be delivered to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not from thence.
Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
37 Then Pilate said to Him, Then, art thou not a king? Jesus responded, Thou says that I am king. Unto this I was born, and unto this I have come into the world, in order that I may bear witness to the truth. Every one being of the truth hears my voice.
Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a King then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a King. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
38 Pilate says to Him, What is truth? And saying this, again he went out to the Jews, and speaks to them, I find no crime in Him.
Pilate saith to him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them, I find in him no fault.
39 There is a custom to you, that I release unto you one during the passover. Then do you wish that I may release unto you the King of the Jews?
But ye have a custom that I should release to you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release to you the King of the Jews?
40 Then they all again cried out, saying, Not Him, but Barabbas. And Barabbas was a robber.
Then they all cried again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
