Від Івана 18
1 Се промовивши Ісус, вийшов з учениками своїми за потік Кедрон, де був сад, у котрий ввійшов Він і ученики Його.
After Jesus finished praying, he went across the Kidron Brook, along with [us] disciples, to a grove [of olive trees].
2 Знав же й Юда, що зрадив Його, се місце, бо почасту збирались там Ісус і ученики Його.
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 Тодї Юда, взявши роту та архиєрейських і Фарисейських слуг, приходить туди з лихтарнями, та факлями [смолоскипами], та з зброєю.
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 Знаючи ж Ісус усе, що настигає на Него, вийшов і рече Їм: Кого шукаєте?
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 Відказали Йому: Ісуса Назорея. Рече їм Ісус: Се я. Стояв же й Юда зрадник Його, з ними.
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 Як же сказав їм: Що се я, відступили вони назад, та й попадали на землю.
When Jesus told them, “That is who I am,” they lurched backward and fell down on the ground [because of his power].
7 Знов же спитав їх: Кого шукаєте? Вони ж сказали: Ісуса Назорея.
He asked them again, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus, [the man] from Nazareth.”
8 Відказав Ісус: Сказав вам, що се я. Коли ж мене шукаєте, дайте сим відійти.
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 Щоб справдилось слово, що промовив: Що которих дав єси менї, не вгубив я з них нїкого.
[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 Тодї Симон Петр, маючи меч, вийняв його, і вдарив слугу архиєрейського, та й відтяв йому ухо праве. Було ж імя слузї Малх.
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 Рече тодї Ісус Петрови: Вкинь меч твій у похву. Чашу, що дав менї Отець, хиба не пити її?
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 Тодї рота, й тисячник, і слуги Жидівські схопили Ісуса, та й звязали Його,
Then the troop of soldiers, along with their commander and the Jewish Temple guards, seized Jesus. They tied his hands [behind his back].
13 і повели Його перш до Анни, був бо тестем Каяфі, що був архиєреем того року.
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 Був же Каяфа той, що порадив Жидам, що лучче нехай один чоловік умре за людей.
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 Пійшов же слїдом за Ісусом Симон Петр та ще другий ученик. Той же ученик був знаний архиєреві, і прийшов з Ісусом у двір архиєрейський.
Simon Peter and [I] were following Jesus. Because the high priest knew [me], [his doorkeeper permitted me] to enter the courtyard.
16 Петр же стояв перед дверми знадвору. Вийшов тодї другий ученик, що був знаний архиєреві, і сказав дверницї, і ввела Петра.
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 Каже тодї слуга двернипя Петрові: Чи й ти єси з учеників чоловіка сього? Каже той: Нї.
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 Стояли ж раби й слуги, що розложили огонь; холодно бо було, та й грілись. Стояв з ними й Петр, і грів ся.
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 Тодї архиєрей спитав Ісуса про учеників Його й про науку Його.
[While Peter was doing that], the high priest asked Jesus about his disciples and about what he was teaching people.
20 Відказав йому Ісус: Я глаголав ясно сьвітові; я завсїди учив у школї і в церкві, куди Жиди завсїди сходять ся, і потай не глаголав нїчого.
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 Чого мене питаєш? Спитай тих, Що слухали, що я глаголав їм; ось вони знають, що я казав
[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 Як же Він де промовив, один із слуг, стоячи тут, ударив у лице Ісуса, кажучи: Так відказуєш архиєреві?
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 Відказав йому Ісус: Коли недобре сказав я, сьвідкуй про недобре; коли добре, за що мене бєш?
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 Післав Його Анна звязаного до Каяфи архиєрея.
Then after Jesus’ hands were tied {after they tied Jesus hands} [again], Annas sent him to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 Симон же Петр стояв та грів ся. Кажуть тодї йому: Чи й ти з Його учеників? Він же відрік ся і сказав: Нї.
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 Каже один із слуг архиєрейських, свояк того, котрому відтяв Петр ухо: Чи ж не бачив я тебе в саду з Ним?
[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 Знов тодї відрік ся Петр, і зараз пївень запіяв.
Peter again denied it. Immediately a rooster crowed, [as Jesus had said would happen].
28 Ведуть тодї Ісуса від Каяфи у претор; був же ранок; і не ввійшли вони в претор, щоб не опоганитись та щоб їсти їм пасху.
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 Вийшов тодї Пилат до них, і каже: Яку вину приносите на чоловіка сього?
So Pilate came out to [talk to] them. He said, “What law do you say that this man has disobeyed?”
30 Озвались і казали йому: Коли б Він не був лиходій, не віддавали б ми Його тобі.
[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 Каже тодї їм Пилат: Візьміть ви Його й по закону вашому осудїть Його. Сказали тодї йому Жиди: Нам не годить ся вбивати нїкого.
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 Щоб Ісусове слово справдилось, що промовив, означуючи, якою смертю має вмерти.
[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 Увійшов тодї знов Пилат у претор, і покликав Ісуса, і каже Йому: Ти єси цар Жидівський?
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 Відказав йому Ісус: Від себе ти се говориш, чи инші тобі сказали про мене?
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 Озвавсь Пилат: Хиба я Жид? Нарід Твій і архиєреї видали менї Тебе. Що зробив єси?
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 Відказав Ісус: Царство моє не од сьвіта сього. Коли б од cьвіта сього було царство моє, слуги мої воювали б, щоб не видано мене Жидам; тільки ж царство моє не звідсїля.
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 Рече тоді Йому Пилат: Так Ти цар? Відказав Ісус: Ти кажеш, що цар я. Я на се родивсь і на се прийшов у сьвіт, щоб сьвідкувати правдї. Кожен, хто від правди, слухає мого голосу.
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 Каже Йому Пилат: Що таке правда? І, се сказавши, знов вийшов до Жидів, і каже їм: Нїякої вини не знаходжу я в Йому.
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 Єсть же звичай у вас, щоб одного вам відпускав я на пасху. Хочете ж, щоб випустив вам царя Жидівського.
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 Закричали тоді вони всї знов, кажучи: Не Сього, а Вараву. Був же Варава розбійник.
They shouted again, “No, do not [release] this man! Instead, [release] Barrabas!” But Barrabas was [in prison because he was] a revolutionist!
