< João 18 >
1 Tendo Jesus dito estas coisas, saiu com os seus discípulos para além do ribeiro de Cedron, onde havia um horto, no qual ele entrou e seus discípulos.
After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered--Himself and His disciples.
2 E Judas, que o traia, também conhecia aquele lugar, porque Jesus muitas vezes se ajuntava ali com os seus discípulos.
Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there with His disciples.
3 Tendo pois Judas tomado uma companhia de soldados e alguns criados dos principais dos sacerdotes e fariseus, veio para ali com lanternas, e archotes e armas.
So Judas, followed by the battalion and by a detachment of the Temple police sent by the High Priests and Pharisees, came there with torches and lamps and weapons.
4 Sabendo pois Jesus todas as coisas que sobre ele haviam de vir, adiantou-se, e disse-lhes: A quem buscais?
Jesus therefore, knowing all that was about to befall Him, went out to meet them. "Who are you looking for?" He asked them.
5 Responderam-lhe: A Jesus Nazareno. Disse-lhes Jesus: Sou eu. E Judas, que o traia, estava também com eles.
"For Jesus the Nazarene," was the answer. "I am he," He replied. (Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)
6 Quando pois lhes disse: Sou eu, recuaram, e cairam por terra.
As soon then as He said to them, "I am he," they went backwards and fell to the ground.
7 Tornou-lhes pois a perguntar: A quem buscais? E eles disseram: A Jesus Nazareno.
Again therefore He asked them, "Who are you looking for?" "For Jesus the Nazarene," they said.
8 Jesus respondeu: Já vos disse que sou eu: se pois me buscais a mim, deixai ir estes.
"I have told you," replied Jesus, "that I am he. If therefore you are looking for me, let these my disciples go their way."
9 Para que se cumprisse a palavra que tinha dito: Dos que me deste nenhum deles perdi.
He made this request in order that the words He had spoken might be fulfilled, "As for those whom Thou hast given me, I have not lost one."
10 Então Simão Pedro, que tinha espada, desembainhou-a, e feriu o servo do sumo sacerdote, e cortou-lhe a orelha direita. E o nome do servo era Malco.
Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
11 Porém Jesus disse a Pedro: mete a tua espada na bainha; não beberei eu o cálice que o Pai me deu?
Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put back your sword. Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father has given me to drink?"
12 Então a coorte, e o tribuno, e os servos dos judeus prenderam a Jesus e o manietaram.
So the battalion and their tribune and the Jewish police closed in, and took Jesus and bound Him.
13 E conduziram-no primeiramente a Anás, por ser sogro de Caiphas, o qual era o sumo sacerdote daquele ano.
They then brought Him to Annas first; for Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.
14 Ora, Caiphas era quem tinha aconselhado aos judeus que convinha que um homem morresse pelo povo.
(It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, "It is to your interest that one man should die for the People.")
15 E Simão Pedro e outro discípulo seguiam a Jesus. E este discípulo era conhecido do sumo sacerdote, e entrou com Jesus na sala do sumo sacerdote.
Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so also was another disciple. The latter was known to the High Priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the High Priest's palace.
16 E Pedro estava fora, à porta. Saiu então o outro discípulo que era conhecido do sumo sacerdote, e falou à porteira, e levou a Pedro para dentro.
But Peter remained standing outside the door, till the disciple who was acquainted with the High Priest came out and induced the portress to let Peter in.
17 Então a porteira disse a Pedro: Não és tu também dos discípulos deste homem? Disse ele: Não sou
This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, "Are you also one of this man's disciples?" "No, I am not," he replied.
18 Ora estavam ali os servos e os criados, que tinham feito brazas, e se aquentavam, porquanto fazia frio; e com eles estava Pedro, aquentando-se também.
Now because it was cold the servants and the police had lighted a charcoal fire, and were standing and warming themselves; and Peter too remained with them, standing and warming himself.
19 E o sumo sacerdote interrogou Jesus acerca dos seus discípulos e da sua doutrina.
So the High Priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.
20 Jesus lhe respondeu: Eu falei abertamente ao mundo; eu sempre ensinei na sinagoga e no templo onde todos os judeus se ajuntam, e nada disse em oculto;
"As for me," replied Jesus, "I have spoken openly to the world. I have continually taught in some synagogue or in the Temple where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and I have said nothing in secret.
21 Para que me perguntas a mim? pergunta aos que ouviram o que é que lhes tenho falado: eis que eles sabem o que eu lhes tenho dito.
Why do you question me? Question those who heard what it was I said to them: these witnesses here know what I said."
22 E, tendo ele dito isto, um dos criados que ali estavam deu uma bofetada em Jesus, dizendo: Assim respondes ao sumo sacerdote?
Upon His saying this, one of the officers standing by struck Him with his open hand, asking Him as he did so, "Is that the way you answer the High Priest?"
23 Respondeu-lhe Jesus: Se falei mal, dá testemunho do mal; e, se bem, porque me feres?
"If I have spoken wrongly," replied Jesus, "bear witness to it as wrong; but if rightly, why that blow?"
24 E Anás mandou-o, manietado, ao sumo sacerdote Caiphas.
So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.
25 E Simão Pedro estava ali, e aquentava-se. Disseram-lhe pois: Não és também tu dos seus discípulos? ele negou, e disse: Não sou
But Simon Peter remained standing and warming himself, and this led to their asking him, "Are you also one of his disciples?" He denied it, and said, "No, I am not."
26 E um dos servos do sumo sacerdote, parente daquele a quem Pedro cortara a orelha, disse: Não te vi eu no horto com ele?
One of the High Priest's servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"
27 E Pedro negou outra vez, e logo o galo cantou.
Once more Peter denied it, and immediately a cock crowed.
28 Depois levaram Jesus da casa de Caiphas para a audiência. E era pela manhã. E não entraram na audiência, para não se contaminarem, mas poderem comer a pascoa.
So they brought Jesus from Caiaphas's house to the Praetorium. It was the early morning, and they would not enter the Praetorium themselves for fear of defilement, and in order that they might be able to eat the Passover.
29 Então Pilatos saiu fora e disse-lhes: Que acusação trazeis contra este homem?
Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, "What accusation have you to bring against this man?"
30 Responderam, e disseram-lhe: Se este não fosse malfeitor, não to entregaríamos.
"If the man were not a criminal," they replied, "we would not have handed him over to you."
31 Disse-lhes pois Pilatos: levai-o vós, e julgai-o segundo a vossa lei. Disseram-lhe pois os judeus: A nós não nos é lícito matar alguém.
"Take him yourselves," said Pilate, "and judge him by your Law." "We have no power," replied the Jews, "to put any man to death."
32 (Para que se cumprisse a palavra que Jesus tinha dito, significando de que morte havia de morrer.)
They said this that the words might be fulfilled in which Jesus predicted the kind of death He was to die.
33 Tornou pois a entrar Pilatos na audiência, e chamou a Jesus, e disse-lhe: Tu és o rei dos judeus?
Re-entering the Praetorium, therefore, Pilate called Jesus and asked Him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
34 Respondeu-lhe Jesus: Tu dizes isso de ti mesmo, ou disseram-to outros de mim?
"Do you say this of yourself, or have others told it you about me?" replied Jesus.
35 Pilatos respondeu: Porventura sou eu judeu? a tua nação e os principais dos sacerdotes entregaram-te a mim: que fizeste?
"Am I a Jew?" exclaimed Pilate; "it is your own nation and the High Priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?"
36 Respondeu Jesus: O meu reino não é deste mundo: se o meu reino fosse deste mundo, pelejariam os meus servos, para que eu não fosse entregue aos judeus: porém agora o meu reino não é daqui.
"My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."
37 Disse-lhe pois Pilatos: Logo tu és rei? Jesus respondeu: Tu dizes que eu sou rei. Eu para isso nasci, e para isso vim ao mundo, para dar testemunho à verdade. Todo aquele que é da verdade ouve a minha voz.
"So then you are a king!" rejoined Pilate. "Yes," said Jesus, "you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world--to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth listens to my voice."
38 Disse-lhe Pilatos: Que é a verdade? E, dizendo isto, tornou a sair para os judeus, e disse-lhes: Não acho nele crime algum;
"What is truth?" said Pilate. But no sooner had he spoken the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them, "I find no crime in him.
39 Mas vós tendes por costume que eu vos solte um pela pascoa. Quereis pois que vos solte o Rei dos judeus?
But you have a custom that I should release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So shall I release to you the King of the Jews?"
40 Então todos tornaram a clamar, dizendo: Este não, mas Barrabás. E Barrabás era um salteador.
With a roar of voices they again cried out, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.
