John 18
1 Having said these things, Jesus, went out, with his disciples, across the winter-torrent of the Kedron, where was a garden, —into which he entered, he, and his disciples.
When Iesus had spoken these things, hee went foorth with his disciples ouer the brooke Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entred, and his disciples.
2 Now, Judas also, who was delivering him up, knew the place: because, oft, had Jesus been gathered there, with his disciples.
And Iudas which betraied him, knewe also the place: for Iesus oft times resorted thither with his disciples.
3 Judas, therefore, receiving the band, and officers, from among the High-priests and [from among] the Pharisees, cometh thither, with lights and torches and weapons.
Iudas then, after hee had receiued a band of men and officers of the high Priests, and of the Pharises, came thither with lanternes and torches, and weapons.
4 Jesus, therefore, knowing all the things coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them—Whom, seek ye?
Then Iesus, knowing all things that shoulde come vnto him, went foorth and said vnto them, Whom seeke yee?
5 They answered him—Jesus, the Nazarene. He saith unto them—I, am he. Now Judas also, who was delivering him up, was standing with them.
They answered him, Iesus of Nazareth. Iesus sayde vnto them, I am hee. Nowe Iudas also which betraied him, stoode with them.
6 When, therefore, he said unto them, I, am he, they went backwards, and fell to the ground.
Assoone then as hee had saide vnto them, I am hee, they went away backewardes, and fell to the grounde.
7 Again, therefore, he questioned them—Whom, seek ye? And, they, said—Jesus, the Nazarene.
Then he asked them againe, Whome seeke yee? And they sayd, Iesus of Nazareth.
8 Jesus answered—I told you, I, am he. If, then, ye seek me, let these go their way: —
Iesus answered, I said vnto you, that I am he: therefore if ye seeke me, let these go their way.
9 that the word might be fulfilled which he had said—As touching them whom thou hast given me, I lost from among them, not so much as one.
This was that the worde might be fulfilled which hee spake, Of them which thou gauest me, haue I lost none.
10 Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and smote the High-priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the name of the servant was Malchus.
Then Simon Peter hauing a sword, drewe it, and smote the hie Priests seruant, and cut off his right eare. Nowe the seruants name was Malchus.
11 Jesus, therefore, said unto Peter—Thrust the sword into its sheath: —The cup which the Father hath given me, shall I in anywise not drink it?
Then sayde Iesus vnto Peter, Put vp thy sworde into the sheath: shall I not drinke of the cuppe which my Father hath giuen me?
12 The band, therefore, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, apprehended Jesus, and bound him,
Then the bande and the captaine, and the officers of the Iewes tooke Iesus, and bound him,
13 and led him unto Annas, first; for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the High-priest of that year.
And led him away to Annas first (for he was father in lawe to Caiaphas, which was the hie Priest that same yeere)
14 Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel unto the Jews, that it was profitable for, one man, to die in behalf of the people.
And Caiaphas was he, that gaue counsel to the Iewes, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 And Simon Peter was following with Jesus, also another disciple. But, that disciple, was known unto the High-priest, and entered in, with Jesus, into the court of the High-priest;
Nowe Simon Peter folowed Iesus, and another disciple, and that disciple was knowen of the hie Priest: therefore he went in with Iesus into the hall of the hie Priest:
16 whereas, Peter, remained standing at the door outside. The other disciple, therefore, that was known of the High-priest, went out, and spake unto the portress, and brought in Peter.
But Peter stood at the doore without. Then went out the other disciple which was knowen vnto the hie Priest, and spake to her that kept the doore, and brought in Peter.
17 The female servant, therefore, the portress, saith unto Peter—Art, thou also, from among the disciples of this man? He, saith—I am not!
Then saide the maide that kept the doore, vnto Peter, Art not thou also one of this mans disciples? He sayd, I am not.
18 Now the servants and the officers were standing by, having made, a coal fire, because it was cold, —and were warming themselves; and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.
And the seruants and officers stoode there, which had made a fire of coles: for it was colde, and they warmed themselues. And Peter also stood among them, and warmed himselfe.
19 The High-priest, therefore, questioned Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching.
(The hie Priest then asked Iesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.
20 Jesus answered him—I, openly, have spoken, unto the world, —I, ever, taught, in synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews gather together; and, in secret, spake nothing:
Iesus answered him, I spake openly to the world: I euer taught in the Synagogue and in the Temple, whither the Iewes resort continually, and in secret haue I sayde nothing.
21 Why questionest thou me? question them who have heard, what I spake unto them. See! these, know what, I, said.
Why askest thou mee? aske them which heard mee what I sayde vnto them: beholde, they knowe what I sayd.
22 And, when, these things, he had said, one of the officers who was standing by, gave a smart blow to Jesus, saying—Thus, answerest thou, the High-priest?
When he had spoken these thinges, one of the officers which stoode by, smote Iesus with his rod, saying, Answerest thou the hie Priest so?
23 Jesus answered him—If, with abuse, I spake, bear witness of the abuse: but, if with respect, why, smitest thou me?
Iesus answered him, If I haue euill spoken, beare witnes of the euil: but if I haue well spoken, why smitest thou me?
24 Annas therefore sent him forth, bound, unto Caiaphas the High-priest.
Nowe Annas had sent him bound vnto Caiaphas the hie Priest)
25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said, therefore, unto him—Art, thou also, from among his disciples? He, denied, and said—I am not!
And Simon Peter stoode and warmed himselfe, and they said vnto him, Art not thou also of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.
26 Saith one from among the servants of the High-priest, being, kinsman, of him whose ear Peter cut off, —Did not, I, see thee, in the garden with him?
One of the seruaunts of the hie Priest, his cousin whose eare Peter smote off, saide, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
27 Again, therefore, Peter denied. And, straightway, a cock crew.
Peter then denied againe, and immediatly the cocke crewe.
28 So they lead Jesus from Caiaphas unto the judgment-hall. Now it was early; and, they themselves, entered not into the judgment-hall, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.
Then led they Iesus from Caiaphas into the common hall. Nowe it was morning, and they themselues went not into the common hall, least they should be defiled, but that they might eate the Passeouer.
29 Pilate, therefore, went forth outside unto them, and saith, —What accusation bring ye against this man?
Pilate then went out vnto them, and said, What accusation bring yee against this man?
30 They answered and said unto him—If this one had not been doing, mischief, unto thee, had we not delivered him up.
They answered, and saide vnto him, If hee were not an euill doer, we woulde not haue deliuered him vnto thee.
31 Pilate, therefore, said unto them—Ye, take him, and, according to your law, judge ye him. The Jews said unto him—Unto us, it is not allowed, to kill anyone!—
Then sayde Pilate vnto them, Take yee him, and iudge him after your owne Lawe. Then the Iewes sayde vnto him, It is not lawfull for vs to put any man to death.
32 that, the word of Jesus, might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying, by what manner of death, he was about to die.
It was that the worde of Iesus might be fulfilled which he spake, signifying what death he should die.
33 Pilate, therefore, entered again into the judgment-hall; and addressed Jesus, and said unto him—Art, thou, the king of the Jews?
So Pilate entred into the common hall againe, and called Iesus, and sayde vnto him, Art thou the king of the Iewes?
34 Jesus answered—Of thyself, art, thou, this thing saying; or did, others, tell thee concerning me?
Iesus answered him, Saiest thou that of thy selfe, or did other tell it thee of me?
35 Pilate answered—Am, I, a Jew? Thine own nation, and the High-priests, delivered thee up, unto me! What, hast thou done?
Pilate answered, Am I a Iewe? Thine owne nation, and the hie Priestes haue deliuered thee vnto me. What hast thou done?
36 Jesus answered—My kingdom, is not of this world: If, of this world, had been my kingdom, mine own officers, would have been striving, that I should not be delivered up unto the Jews: but, now, my kingdom, is not from hence.
Iesus answered, My kingdome is not of this worlde: if my kingdome were of this worlde, my seruants would surely fight, that I should not be deliuered to the Iewes: but nowe is my kingdome not from hence.
37 Pilate, therefore, said unto him—And yet, thou, art, not a king? Jesus answered—Thou, sayest, that, a king, I am: I, for this, have been born, and, for this, have come into the world, —that I may bear witness unto the truth: Every one who is of the truth, hearkeneth unto my voice.
Pilate then said vnto him, Art thou a King then? Iesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a King: for this cause am I borne, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should beare witnes vnto the trueth: euery one that is of the trueth, heareth my voyce.
38 Pilate saith unto him—What, is truth? And, this saying, again, went he out to the Jews, and saith unto them, —I, find in him, not a single fault.
Pilate said vnto him, What is trueth? And when he had saide that, hee went out againe vnto the Iewes, and said vnto them, I finde in him no cause at all.
39 Howbeit ye have, a custom, that, some one, I should release unto you, during the passover: —Are ye minded, then, that I release unto you the king of the Jews?
But you haue a custome, that I shoulde deliuer you one loose at the Passeouer: will yee then that I loose vnto you the King of ye Iewes?
40 So they cried aloud again, saying—Not this man, but Barabbas! Now, Barabbas, was, a robber.
Then cried they all againe, saying, Not him, but Barabbas: nowe this Barabbas was a murtherer.
