< John 18 >

1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples.
tāḥ kathāḥ kathayitvā yīśuḥ śiṣyānādāya kidronnāmakaṁ srota uttīryya śiṣyaiḥ saha tatratyodyānaṁ prāviśat|
2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus frequently resorted thither with his disciples.
kintu viśvāsaghātiyihūdāstat sthānaṁ paricīyate yato yīśuḥ śiṣyaiḥ sārddhaṁ kadācit tat sthānam agacchat|
3 Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, comes thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
tadā sa yihūdāḥ sainyagaṇaṁ pradhānayājakānāṁ phirūśināñca padātigaṇañca gṛhītvā pradīpān ulkān astrāṇi cādāya tasmin sthāna upasthitavān|
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek all of you?
svaṁ prati yad ghaṭiṣyate taj jñātvā yīśuragresaraḥ san tānapṛcchat kaṁ gaveṣayatha?
5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus says unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.
te pratyavadan, nāsaratīyaṁ yīśuṁ; tato yīśuravādīd ahameva saḥ; taiḥ saha viśvāsaghātī yihūdāścātiṣṭhat|
6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.
tadāhameva sa tasyaitāṁ kathāṁ śrutvaiva te paścādetya bhūmau patitāḥ|
7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek all of you? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
tato yīśuḥ punarapi pṛṣṭhavān kaṁ gaveṣayatha? tataste pratyavadan nāsaratīyaṁ yīśuṁ|
8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore all of you seek me, let these go their way:
tadā yīśuḥ pratyuditavān ahameva sa imāṁ kathāmacakatham; yadi māmanvicchatha tarhīmān gantuṁ mā vārayata|
9 That the saying (logos) might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Of them which you gave me have I lost none.
itthaṁ bhūte mahyaṁ yāllokān adadāsteṣām ekamapi nāhārayam imāṁ yāṁ kathāṁ sa svayamakathayat sā kathā saphalā jātā|
10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and stroke the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
tadā śimonpitarasya nikaṭe khaṅgalsthiteḥ sa taṁ niṣkoṣaṁ kṛtvā mahāyājakasya mālkhanāmānaṁ dāsam āhatya tasya dakṣiṇakarṇaṁ chinnavān|
11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up your sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?
tato yīśuḥ pitaram avadat, khaṅgaṁ koṣe sthāpaya mama pitā mahyaṁ pātuṁ yaṁ kaṁsam adadāt tenāhaṁ kiṁ na pāsyāmi?
12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,
tadā sainyagaṇaḥ senāpati ryihūdīyānāṁ padātayaśca yīśuṁ ghṛtvā baddhvā hānannāmnaḥ kiyaphāḥ śvaśurasya samīpaṁ prathamam anayan|
13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.
sa kiyaphāstasmin vatsare mahāyājatvapade niyuktaḥ
14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
san sādhāraṇalokānāṁ maṅgalārtham ekajanasya maraṇamucitam iti yihūdīyaiḥ sārddham amantrayat|
15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.
tadā śimonpitaro'nyaikaśiṣyaśca yīśoḥ paścād agacchatāṁ tasyānyaśiṣyasya mahāyājakena paricitatvāt sa yīśunā saha mahāyājakasyāṭṭālikāṁ prāviśat|
16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spoke unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.
kintu pitaro bahirdvārasya samīpe'tiṣṭhad ataeva mahāyājakena paricitaḥ sa śiṣyaḥ punarbahirgatvā dauvāyikāyai kathayitvā pitaram abhyantaram ānayat|
17 Then says the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Are not you also one of this man's disciples? He says, I am not.
tadā sa dvārarakṣikā pitaram avadat tvaṁ kiṁ na tasya mānavasya śiṣyaḥ? tataḥ sovadad ahaṁ na bhavāmi|
18 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.
tataḥ paraṁ yatsthāne dāsāḥ padātayaśca śītahetoraṅgārai rvahniṁ prajvālya tāpaṁ sevitavantastatsthāne pitarastiṣṭhan taiḥ saha vahnitāpaṁ sevitum ārabhata|
19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.
tadā śiṣyeṣūpadeśe ca mahāyājakena yīśuḥ pṛṣṭaḥ
20 Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.
san pratyuktavān sarvvalokānāṁ samakṣaṁ kathāmakathayaṁ guptaṁ kāmapi kathāṁ na kathayitvā yat sthānaṁ yihūdīyāḥ satataṁ gacchanti tatra bhajanagehe mandire cāśikṣayaṁ|
21 Why ask you me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.
mattaḥ kutaḥ pṛcchasi? ye janā madupadeśam aśṛṇvan tāneva pṛccha yadyad avadaṁ te tat jāninta|
22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answer you the high priest so?
tadetthaṁ pratyuditatvāt nikaṭasthapadāti ryīśuṁ capeṭenāhatya vyāharat mahāyājakam evaṁ prativadasi?
23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smite you me?
tato yīśuḥ pratigaditavān yadyayathārtham acakathaṁ tarhi tasyāyathārthasya pramāṇaṁ dehi, kintu yadi yathārthaṁ tarhi kuto heto rmām atāḍayaḥ?
24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.
pūrvvaṁ hānan sabandhanaṁ taṁ kiyaphāmahāyājakasya samīpaṁ praiṣayat|
25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.
śimonpitarastiṣṭhan vahnitāpaṁ sevate, etasmin samaye kiyantastam apṛcchan tvaṁ kim etasya janasya śiṣyo na? tataḥ sopahnutyābravīd ahaṁ na bhavāmi|
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did not I see you in the garden with him?
tadā mahāyājakasya yasya dāsasya pitaraḥ karṇamacchinat tasya kuṭumbaḥ pratyuditavān udyāne tena saha tiṣṭhantaṁ tvāṁ kiṁ nāpaśyaṁ?
27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.
kintu pitaraḥ punarapahnutya kathitavān; tadānīṁ kukkuṭo'raut|
28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto 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.
tadanantaraṁ pratyūṣe te kiyaphāgṛhād adhipate rgṛhaṁ yīśum anayan kintu yasmin aśucitve jāte tai rnistārotsave na bhoktavyaṁ, tasya bhayād yihūdīyāstadgṛhaṁ nāviśan|
29 Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring all of you against this man?
aparaṁ pīlāto bahirāgatya tān pṛṣṭhavān etasya manuṣyasya kaṁ doṣaṁ vadatha?
30 They answered and said unto him, If he were not a villain, we would not have delivered him up unto you.
tadā te petyavadan duṣkarmmakāriṇi na sati bhavataḥ samīpe nainaṁ samārpayiṣyāmaḥ|
31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take all of you him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
tataḥ pīlāto'vadad yūyamenaṁ gṛhītvā sveṣāṁ vyavasthayā vicārayata| tadā yihūdīyāḥ pratyavadan kasyāpi manuṣyasya prāṇadaṇḍaṁ karttuṁ nāsmākam adhikāro'sti|
32 That the saying (logos) of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying what death he should die.
evaṁ sati yīśuḥ svasya mṛtyau yāṁ kathāṁ kathitavān sā saphalābhavat|
33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Are you the King of the Jews?
tadanantaraṁ pīlātaḥ punarapi tad rājagṛhaṁ gatvā yīśumāhūya pṛṣṭavān tvaṁ kiṁ yihūdīyānāṁ rājā?
34 Jesus answered him, Say you this thing of yourself, or did others tell it you of me?
yīśuḥ pratyavadat tvam etāṁ kathāṁ svataḥ kathayasi kimanyaḥ kaścin mayi kathitavān?
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you unto me: what have you done?
pīlāto'vadad ahaṁ kiṁ yihūdīyaḥ? tava svadeśīyā viśeṣataḥ pradhānayājakā mama nikaṭe tvāṁ samārpayana, tvaṁ kiṁ kṛtavān?
36 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 behind.
yīśuḥ pratyavadat mama rājyam etajjagatsambandhīyaṁ na bhavati yadi mama rājyaṁ jagatsambandhīyam abhaviṣyat tarhi yihūdīyānāṁ hasteṣu yathā samarpito nābhavaṁ tadarthaṁ mama sevakā ayotsyan kintu mama rājyam aihikaṁ na|
37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.
tadā pīlātaḥ kathitavān, tarhi tvaṁ rājā bhavasi? yīśuḥ pratyuktavān tvaṁ satyaṁ kathayasi, rājāhaṁ bhavāmi; satyatāyāṁ sākṣyaṁ dātuṁ janiṁ gṛhītvā jagatyasmin avatīrṇavān, tasmāt satyadharmmapakṣapātino mama kathāṁ śṛṇvanti|
38 Pilate says unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and says unto them, I find in him no fault at all.
tadā satyaṁ kiṁ? etāṁ kathāṁ paṣṭvā pīlātaḥ punarapi bahirgatvā yihūdīyān abhāṣata, ahaṁ tasya kamapyaparādhaṁ na prāpnomi|
39 But all of you have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will all of you therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
nistārotsavasamaye yuṣmābhirabhirucita eko jano mayā mocayitavya eṣā yuṣmākaṁ rītirasti, ataeva yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭe yihūdīyānāṁ rājānaṁ kiṁ mocayāmi, yuṣmākam icchā kā?
40 Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
tadā te sarvve ruvanto vyāharan enaṁ mānuṣaṁ nahi barabbāṁ mocaya| kintu sa barabbā dasyurāsīt|
