Jāņa Evaņg̒elijs 18
1 To sacījis Jēzus izgāja ar Saviem mācekļiem pār Kidronas upi; tur bija dārzs, kurā Viņš un Viņa mācekļi iegāja.
After Jesus finished praying, he went across the Kidron Brook, along with [us] disciples, to a grove [of olive trees].
2 Bet arī Jūdas, kas Viņu nodeva, zināja to vietu; jo Jēzus dažu reiz tur bija sapulcējies ar Saviem mācekļiem.
Judas, who was [about to] enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him, knew that [he would probably be] there. [He knew that because] Jesus often gathered there with us.
3 Tad Jūdas, karavīru pulku ņēmis pie sevis un sulaiņus no tiem augstiem priesteriem un farizejiem, tur nonāk ar lāpām, eļļas svecēm un kara ieročiem.
So Judas came to that grove. He was leading a troop of Roman [soldiers] and some Temple guards who had been sent by the Pharisees and chief priests. They were carrying torches and lamps and weapons.
4 Jēzus nu visu zinādams, kas Viņam notikšot, gāja tiem pretim un uz tiem saka: “Ko jūs meklējat?”
Jesus knew everything that was about to happen to him. So [as they approached], he stepped forward and asked them, “Who are you looking for?”
5 Tie Viņam atbildēja: “Jēzu no Nacaretes.” Jēzus uz tiem saka: “Es tas esmu.” Un pie tiem stāvēja arī Jūdas, kas Viņu nodeva.
They replied to him, “Jesus, the man from Nazareth.” He replied, “That is who I am.” Judas, the one who was enabling his enemies to seize him, was with them.
6 Kad nu Jēzus uz tiem sacīja: “Es tas esmu;” tad tie atkāpās atpakaļ un krita pie zemes.
When Jesus told them, “That is who I am,” they lurched backward and fell down on the ground [because of his power].
7 Tad viņš tiem atkal vaicāja: “Ko jūs meklējat?” Un tie sacīja: “Jēzu no Nacaretes.”
He asked them again, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus, [the man] from Nazareth.”
8 Jēzus atbildēja: “Es jums esmu sacījis, ka Es tas esmu; ja tad jūs Mani meklējat, tad lieciet šos mierā.”
Jesus replied, “I told you that I am Jesus. So since I am the one you are looking for, allow these [disciples of mine] to go.”
9 Ka tas vārds taptu piepildīts, ko Viņš bija sacījis: “Es nevienu neesmu pazaudējis no tiem, ko Tu Man esi devis.”
[This happened] in order that [when they did what he asked them to do], the words would be fulfilled that he had prayed, “I will never lose any of those whom God has brought to me.”
10 Bet Sīmanis Pēteris, kam zobens bija, to izvilcis cirta tam augstā priestera kalpam un tam nocirta labo ausi, un tā kalpa vārds bija Malkus.
Simon Peter had a [long] dagger. So he drew it and [tried to kill] the high priest’s servant, [but he only] cut off the man’s right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
11 Tad Jēzus uz Pēteri sacīja: “Bāz savu zobenu makstīs; vai Man nebūs to biķeri dzert, ko Mans Tēvs Man ir devis?”
Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword [back] into its sheath! (I must endure what [my] Father wants me to suffer./Do you not think that I must endure what [my] Father wants me to suffer?) [MET, RHQ]”
12 Tad tas pulks un tas virsnieks un tie Jūdu sulaiņi Jēzu saņēma un sēja,
Then the troop of soldiers, along with their commander and the Jewish Temple guards, seized Jesus. They tied his hands [behind his back].
13 Un Viņu veda papriekš pie Annasa, tas bija sievas tēvs Kajafasam, kas bija tā gada augstais priesteris.
Then they took him first to Annas, [who was previously the high priest]. He was the father-in-law of Caiaphas. Caiaphas was the high priest that year.
14 Bet Kajafas bija tas, kas tiem Jūdiem padomu bija devis, labi esot, ka viens cilvēks mirtu par to tautu.
Caiaphas was the one who [previously] advised the Jewish [Council] that it would be better if one man died for the sake of the people [than for all the people of the Jewish nation to die].
15 Un Sīmanis Pēteris un vēl otrs māceklis Jēzum gāja pakaļ, un šis māceklis tam augstam priesterim bija pazīstams un iegāja līdz ar Jēzu tā augstā priestera pilī.
Simon Peter and [I] were following Jesus. Because the high priest knew [me], [his doorkeeper permitted me] to enter the courtyard.
16 Bet Pēteris stāvēja ārā pie durvīm. Tad tas otrs māceklis, kas tam augstam priesterim bija pazīstams, izgāja un runāja ar to durvju sargātāju un ieveda Pēteri iekšā.
But Peter [had to] wait outside near the doorway. However, since I knew the high priest, I went back to the doorway and spoke to the girl who was guarding the entrance. Then [she allowed] Peter to come in.
17 Tad tā kalpone, kas bija durvju sargātāja, saka uz Pēteri: “Vai tu arīdzan neesi viens no šī cilvēka mācekļiem?” Tas saka: “Es neesmu.”
The servant girl who was guarding the doorway said to Peter, “Surely you are not another disciple of that man [they have arrested], are you?” He said, “I am not.”
18 Un tie kalpi un sulaiņi stāvēja un uguni bija sakūruši no oglēm, jo bija auksts, un tie sildījās. Bet arī Pēteris pie tiem stāvēja un sildījās.
It was cold, so the high priest’s slaves and Temple guards made a charcoal fire and were standing around it to keep warm. Peter was also standing near it, warming himself.
19 Tad tas augstais priesteris Jēzum vaicāja par Viņa mācekļiem un par Viņa mācību.
[While Peter was doing that], the high priest asked Jesus about his disciples and about what he was teaching people.
20 Jēzus tam atbildēja: “Es droši un skaidri esmu runājis uz pasauli, Es allaž esmu mācījis baznīcā un Dieva namā, kur visi tie Jūdi saiet, un neko neesmu runājis kaktā.
Jesus replied, “I have always spoken where many people [MTY, HYP] could hear me. I have taught them in (the synagogues/their meeting places) and in the Temple courtyard, in places where many [HYP] Jews come together. I have spoken nothing secretly.
21 Ko tu Man jautā? Jautā tiem, kas dzirdējuši, ko Es uz tiem esmu runājis; redzi, tie zin, ko Es esmu sacījis.”
[So] (why are you asking me questions [like this illegally]?/you should not be asking me questions [like this illegally]!) [RHQ] Ask the people who heard what I taught! They certainly know what I said!”
22 Bet Jēzum to runājot viens no tiem sulaiņiem, kas klāt stāvēja, Viņam sita vaigā un sacīja: “Vai Tu tā atbildi augstam priesterim?”
After Jesus said that, one of the Temple guards standing near him slapped him on his face. He said, “(That is not the way you should answer the high priest!/Is that the way you should answer the high priest?) [RHQ]”
23 Jēzus tam atbildēja: “Kad Es esmu nepareizi runājis, tad pierādi, ka tas ir nepareizi; bet kad esmu pareizi runājis, kam tad tu Mani siti?”
Jesus replied to him, “If I said something that was contrary [to your laws], you could tell [me that what I said that] was wrong. But because I said only what was right, (you should not be striking me!/why are you striking me?) [RHQ]”
24 Tad Annas Viņu sūtīja saistītu pie Kajafasa, tā augstā priestera.
Then after Jesus’ hands were tied {after they tied Jesus hands} [again], Annas sent him to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 Bet Sīmanis Pēteris stāvēja un sildījās. Tad tie uz viņu sacīja: “Vai tu arīdzan neesi viens no Viņa mācekļiem?” Tas liedzās un sacīja: “Es neesmu.”
As Simon Peter was standing warming himself [at the fire], someone else said to him, “You are not one of that man’s disciples, are you?” He denied [that he was], and said, “I am not.”
26 Tad viens no tā augstā priestera kalpiem, radinieks tam, kam Pēteris labo ausi bija nocirtis, saka: “Vai es tevi neredzēju dārzā pie Viņa?”
[Later] one of the high priest’s servants, a man who was a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off [before], said to him, “I saw you with that man in the grove [of olive trees], did I not?”
27 Tad Pēteris atkal liedzās; un tūdaļ gailis dziedāja.
Peter again denied it. Immediately a rooster crowed, [as Jesus had said would happen].
28 Tad tie Jēzu veda no Kajafasa uz tiesas namu, un vēl bija agrs (rīts). Un paši neiegāja tiesas namā, ka netaptu nešķīsti, bet ka varētu ēst Lieldienas jēru.
Then the [Jewish leaders] [SYN] led Jesus from the [home of] Caiaphas to the headquarters [of Pilate, the Roman governor]. It was before dawn. [Pilate was a non-Jew], [and they thought that if they entered his headquarters], they would become unacceptable to God {God would reject them}, [and as a result] they would not be able to eat [the food during] the Passover [celebration]. [Because of that, they did not want to enter Pilate’s headquarters].
29 Tad Pilatus pie tiem izgāja ārā un sacīja: “Ko jūs sūdzat par šo cilvēku?”
So Pilate came out to [talk to] them. He said, “What law do you say that this man has disobeyed?”
30 Tie atbildēja un uz viņu sacīja: “Ja Šis nebūtu ļauna darītājs, tad mēs To tev nebūtu nodevuši.”
[They knew that Jesus had not disobeyed any Roman law, so they did not want to answer him. Instead], they said, “If this man were not a criminal, we would not have brought him to you!”
31 Tad Pilatus uz tiem sacīja: “Tad ņemiet jūs Viņu un tiesājiet Viņu pēc savas bauslības.” Tad tie Jūdi uz viņu sacīja: “Mums nav brīv nevienu nonāvēt.”
Then Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your own laws!” Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said, “[No! We want him executed, but we want you Romans to execute him, because] we Jews have no right to execute anyone!”
32 Ka Jēzus vārds taptu piepildīts, ko Viņš sacīja norādīdams, ar kādu nāvi Viņam būs mirt.
[The Romans executed people by nailing them to a cross]. [So], as a result of what [the Jewish leaders said], it was fulfilled {[the Romans] would fulfill} what Jesus had said previously about the way he was going to die.
33 Tad Pilatus atkal iegāja tiesas namā un Jēzu aicināja un uz To sacīja: “Vai Tu esi tas Jūdu Ķēniņš?”
Pilate then went back inside his headquarters. He summoned Jesus. [Because the Jewish leaders had said that Jesus claimed to be a king], Pilate said to Jesus [scornfully], “Are you the king of the Jews?”
34 Jēzus tam atbildēja: “Vai tu to runā pats no sevis? Jeb vai citi tev to par Mani sacījuši?”
Jesus replied, “Are you asking that because you yourself [want to know if I claim to be a king], or because (someone else/Caiaphas) said [that I claim to be their king]?”
35 Pilatus atbildēja: “Vai es esmu Jūds? Tava tauta un tie augstie priesteri Tevi man nodevuši; ko Tu esi darījis?”
Pilate replied, “I am not a Jew, [so] ([I cannot understand these matters!/how can I understand these matters]?) [RHQ] It was your fellow Jews and your chief priests who brought you to me! What have you done [to make them want to execute you]?”
36 Jēzus atbildēja: “Mana valstība nav no šīs pasaules; ja Mana valstība būtu no šīs pasaules, tad Mani kalpi par to kautos, ka Es tiem Jūdiem netaptu nodots. Bet nu Mana valstība nav no tejienes.”
Jesus replied, “It is not people in [MTY] this world who are [making me] king. If it was people in this world who were making me a king, my disciples would have fought in order that the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] would be prevented {to prevent the Jewish [leaders] [SYN]} from seizing me. But it is not [someone here in] this world who is making me a king.”
37 Tad Pilatus uz Viņu sacīja: “Tad Tu tomēr esi Ķēniņš?” Jēzus atbildēja: “Tu to saki, Es esmu Ķēniņš. Es tāpēc esmu dzimis un tāpēc pasaulē nācis, ka Man būs patiesību apliecināt. Ikviens, kas ir no patiesības, dzird Manu balsi.”
Then Pilate said to him, “So [are you saying that] you are a king?” Jesus replied, “[Yes], what you have said about my being a king [is correct]. I was born to become a king, and I came into this world to tell people the truth [about God]. Everyone who [believes] the truth pays attention to what I say.”
38 Pilatus uz Viņu saka: “Kas ir patiesība?” Un to sacījis viņš atkal izgāja ārā pie tiem Jūdiem un uz tiem saka: “Es pie Tā nekādas vainas neatrodu.
Pilate said to him, “[How can anyone know] what the truth is?” After he said that, he went outside and talked to the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] again. He said to them, “I do not find that he has done anything at all for which I should punish him.
39 Bet jums ir ieradums, ka es jums vienu atlaižu uz Lieldienu. Vai jūs nu gribat, lai es jums atlaižu to Jūdu Ķēniņu?”
But you [Jews] customarily, [every year] during the Passover [celebration], ask me to release for you [someone who is in prison]. So would you like for me to release for you the [man who you] Jews [say is your] king?”
40 Tad visi atkal brēca sacīdami: “Ne to, bet Barabu.” Bet Baraba bija slepkava.
They shouted again, “No, do not [release] this man! Instead, [release] Barrabas!” But Barrabas was [in prison because he was] a revolutionist!
