< John 18 >

1 These things having said (*ko*) Jesus went out with the disciples of Him beyond the winter stream (of the *N(k)O*) of Kidron where there was a garden into which entered He himself and the disciples of Him.
When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the wadi of the Kidron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.
2 Knew now also Judas who is delivering up Him the place, because often gathered together (*ko*) Jesus there with the disciples of Him.
Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
3 Therefore Judas having procured the cohort and from the chief priests and from the Pharisees officers comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
4 Jesus (therefore *NK(o)*) knowing all things that are coming upon Him (he went out *N(k)O*) (also *no*) (speaks *N(k)O*) to them; Whom seek you?
Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went forth, and said to them, "Who are you looking for?"
5 They answered to Him; Jesus of Nazareth. He says to them (*ko*) (Jesus: *KO*) I myself am [He]. Had been standing now also Judas who is delivering up Him with them.
They answered him, "Jesus the Nazorean." Jesus said to them, "I AM." Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
6 When therefore He said to them (that: *k*) I myself am [He], they drew toward the back and fell to [the] ground.
When therefore he said to them, "I AM," they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Again therefore He questioned them: Whom seek you? And they said; Jesus of Nazareth.
Again therefore he asked them, "Who are you looking for?" They said, "Jesus the Nazorean."
8 Answered (*k*) Jesus; I have told you that I myself am [He]. If therefore Me myself you seek, do allow these to go away;
Jesus answered, "I told you that I AM. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,"
9 so that may be fulfilled the word that He had spoken that Those whom You have given Me not I lost of them not [one].
that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, "Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none."
10 Simon then Peter having a sword drew it and he struck the of the high priest servant and cut off of him the (ear *N(k)O*) right; Was now name of the servant Malchus.
Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
11 Said therefore Jesus to Peter; do put the sword (of you *k*) into the sheath. The cup which has given Me the Father certainly surely shall I drink it?
Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put the sword into its sheath. Am I not to drink the cup which the Father has given me?"
12 Then the cohort and the commander and the officers of the Jews took hold of Jesus and bound Him
So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jewish leaders, seized Jesus and bound him,
13 and (they brought away *N(k)O*) (him *k*) to Annas first; he was for father-in-law of Caiaphas who was high priest on the year same.
and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 Was now Caiaphas the [one] having given counsel to the Jews that it is profitable for one man (to die *N(k)O*) for the people.
Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jewish leaders that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 Were following now after Jesus Simon Peter and (the *ko*) other disciple. the Now disciple that [one] was known to the high priest also he entered with Jesus into the court of the high priest.
Simon Peter followed Jesus, as did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest;
16 But Peter had stood at the door outside. Went out therefore the disciple other (who *N(k)O*) (was *k*) known (to the high priest *N(k)O*) and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought in Peter.
but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought in Peter.
17 Says therefore to Peter the servant girl the doorkeeper: Surely also you yourself of the disciples are of the man this? Says he; Not I am.
Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, "Are you also one of this man's disciples?" He said, "I am not."
18 Had been standing now the servants and the officers a fire of coals having made, for cold it was and they were warming themselves; Was now (also *no*) Peter with them having stood and warming himself.
Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. They were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.
19 Then the high priest questioned Jesus concerning the disciples of Him and concerning the teaching of Him.
The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his teaching.
20 Answered to him (*k*) Jesus; I myself openly (have spoken *N(k)O*) to the world. I myself always taught in (the *k*) synagogue and in the temple where (all *N(K)O*) the Jews come together, and in secret I spoke not [anything].
Jesus answered him, "I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jewish people come together. I said nothing in secret.
21 Why Me (do you ask? do ask *N(k)O*) those having heard what I spoke to them. behold they know what said I myself.
Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard what I spoke to them; surely they know what I said."
22 These things now of Him having said one already standing by of the officers gave a blow with the palm to Jesus having said; Thus answer You to the high priest?
When he had said this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying, "Do you answer the high priest like that?"
23 Answered to him (*k*) Jesus; If evil I spoke, do bear witness concerning the evil; if however rightly, why Me strike you?
Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?"
24 Sent then Him Annas bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 Was now Simon Peter already standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him; Surely also you yourself of the disciples of Him are? Denied (therefore *O*) he and said; Not I am.
Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you?" He denied it, and said, "I am not."
26 Says one of the servants of the high priest kinsman being [of him] of whom cut off Peter the ear; Surely I myself you saw in the garden with Him?
One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"
27 Again then denied (*k*) Peter, and immediately a rooster crowed.
Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
28 They are leading then Jesus from Caiaphas into the Praetorium; It was now (early. *N(k)O*) and they themselves not entered into the Praetorium so that not they may be defiled but (so that *K*) may eat the Passover.
They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves did not enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.
29 Went therefore Pilate (out *NO*) to them and (said; *N(k)O*) What accusation bring you against man this?
Pilate therefore went out to them, and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"
30 They answered and they said to him; only except were He (evil *N(K)O*) (doing, *N(k)O*) [then] not would to you we have delivered Him.
They answered him, "If this man weren't an evildoer, we would not have delivered him up to you."
31 Said therefore to them Pilate; do take Him yourselves and according to the law of you do judge Him. Said (therefore *KO*) to him the Jews; To us not it is permitted to put to death no [one];
Pilate therefore said to them, "Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law." Therefore the Jewish leaders said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,"
32 that the word of Jesus may be fulfilled which He had spoken signifying as what death He was about to die.
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
33 Entered therefore again into the Praetorium Pilate and he called Jesus and said to Him; You yourself are the King of the Jews?
Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
34 Answered (to him *k*) Jesus; Of (yourself *N(k)O*) you yourself this say or others did say [it] to you concerning Me?
Jesus answered him, "Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?"
35 Answered Pilate; surely not ever I myself a Jew am? The nation of You and the chief priests delivered You to me myself; What did You do?
Pilate answered, "I'm not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you to me. What have you done?"
36 Answered (*k*) Jesus; The kingdom of Mine not is of world this; if of world this were kingdom of Mine, attendants of Mine they were fighting then would that not I may be betrayed to the Jews; Now however kingdom of Mine not is from here.
Jesus answered, "My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I would not be delivered to the Jewish leaders. But now my Kingdom is not from here."
37 Said therefore to Him Pilate; Then a king are You yourself? Answered Jesus; You yourself say that a king am (I myself. *k*) I myself for this have been born and for this I have come into the world that I may bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is being of the truth hears My the voice.
Pilate therefore said to him, "Are you a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice."
38 Says to Him Pilate; What is truth? And this having said again he went out to the Jews and says to them; I myself no [thing] find in Him guilt.
Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" When he had said this, he went out again to the Jewish leaders, and said to them, "I find no basis for a charge against him.
39 It is however a custom with you that one I may release to you at the Passover; wish you therefore I may release to you the King of the Jews?
But you have a custom, that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"
40 They cried out then again (all *ko*) saying; Not this one but Barabbas! Was now Barabbas an insurrectionist.
Then they shouted again, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas." Now Barabbas was a robber.
