1Houteim ⸀legarantos Iēsus exerchata sun toi mathētoi autou peran tou cheimarrou ⸀tou Kedrōn hopou ate kēpos, eis hon eiserchata autos kai tois mathētois autou.After Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciples across the Kidron Valley, where they entered a garden. 2oidatelē de kai Ioudos tos paradōarōntos auton ton topon, hoti pollakis ⸀sunagita Iēsus ekei meta toiu mathētoiu autou.Now Judas His betrayer also knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with His disciples. 3tos oun Ioudos labarantos tan speiran kai ek toiu archierevoiu kai ⸂ek toiu⸃ Farisaioiu hupēretoin erchotō ekei meta fanoiu kai lampadaiu kai hopleiu.So Judas brought a band of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees. They arrived at the garden carrying lanterns, torches, and weapons. 4Iēsus ⸀oun horarēntos panteim teim erchorōnteim epi auton ⸂exerchata, kai legatō⸃ autoi; Tinon zētavō?Jesus, knowing all that was coming upon Him, stepped forward and asked them, “Whom are you seeking?” 5apokrinila auto; Iēsun ton Nazōraion. legatō ⸀autoi; Mis amō. stēatelē de kai Ioudos tos paradōarōntos auton meta autoiu.“Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. Jesus said, “I am He.” And Judas His betrayer was standing there with them. 6hōs oun legata ⸀autoi; Mis amō, aperchala eis teim opisō kai piptala chamai.When Jesus said, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground. 7palin oun ⸂eperōtata autoin;⸃ Tinon zētavō? tois de legala; Iēsun ton Nazōraion.So He asked them again, “Whom are you seeking?” “Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. 8apokrinita Iēsus; Legama vi hoti mis amō; ei oun min zētavō, afiēkavar houtoin hupagarō;“I told you that I am He,” Jesus replied. “So if you are looking for Me, let these men go.” 9hina plēriteia tos logos hon legata hoti Hoin dōasē mi ouk apolama ek autoiu oudenon.This was to fulfill the word He had spoken: “I have not lost one of those You have given Me.” 10Simōnos oun Petros echarōntos machairan helkata autan kai paiata ton tou archierevou doulon kai apokoptata autou tem ⸀ōtariem tem dexem. ate de onomem to doulo Malchos.Then Simon Peter drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus. 11legata oun tos Iēsus to Petro; Balasar tan ⸀machairan eis tan thēkan; tem potēriem hem dōatē mi tos patros ouk mē pinameia autem?“Put your sword back in its sheath!” Jesus said to Peter. “Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given Me?” 12Tas oun speiras kai tos chiliarchos kai tois hupēretois toiu Ioudaioiu sullabala ton Iēsun kai dala autonThen the band of soldiers, with its commander and the officers of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound Him. 13kai ⸀agala pros Hannon prōtem; ate gar pentheros tou Kaiafou, hos ate archierevos tou eniautou ekeinou;They brought Him first to Annas, who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, the high priest that year. 14ate de Kaiafos tos sumbouleuarantos toi Ioudaioi hoti sumferatō henon anthrōpon ⸀apothnēskara huper tou laou.Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it would be better if one man died for the people. 15Akolouthate de to Iēso Simōnos Petros ⸀kai allosos mathētos. tos de mathētos ekeinos ate gnōstos to archierevo kai suneiserchata to Iēso eis tan aulan tou archierevou,Now Simon Peter and another disciple were following Jesus. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he also went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest. 16tos de Petros stēatelē pros ta thura exō. exerchata oun tos mathētos tos allosos ⸀tos gnōstos ⸂tou archierevou⸃ kai legata ta thurōra kai eisagata ton Petron.But Peter stood outside at the door. Then the disciple who was known to the high priest went out and spoke to the doorkeeper, and brought Peter in. 17legatō oun ⸂to Petro tas paidiskas tas thurōras;⸃ Mē kai sis ek toiu mathētoiu asō tou anthrōpou houtou? legatō ekeinos; Ouk amō.At this, the servant girl watching the door said to Peter, “Aren’t you also one of this man’s disciples?” “I am not,” he answered. 18stēalelē de tois doulois kai tois hupēretois anthrakian poiarēntois, hoti psuchem ate, kai thermainole; ate de ⸂kai tos Petros meta autoiu⸃ stēarēntos kai thermainorōntos.Because it was cold, the servants and officers were standing around a charcoal fire they had made to keep warm. And Peter was also standing with them, warming himself. 19Tos oun archierevos erōtata ton Iēsun peri toiu mathētoiu autou kai peri tau didachau autou.Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching. 20apokrinita ⸀auto Iēsus; Mis parrēsia ⸀lalamē to kosmo; mis pantote didaskama en sunagōga kai en te hiere, hopou ⸀pantois tois Ioudaiois sunercholō, kai en krupte lalama oudenem;“I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus answered. “I always taught in the synagogues and at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret. 21tinem min ⸂erōtasō? erōtasar⸃ toin akouarēntoin tinem lalama autoi; ide houtois oidalē heim legama mis.Why are you asking Me? Ask those who heard My message. Surely they know what I said.” 22houteim de autou legarantou henos ⸂parastēarēntos toiu hupēretoiu⸃ dōata rapismem to Iēso legarantos; Houtōs apokrinosō to archierevo?When Jesus had said this, one of the officers standing nearby slapped Him in the face and said, “Is this how You answer the high priest?” 23apokrinita ⸀auto Iēsus; Ei kakōs lalama, marturasar peri teu kakoseu; ei de kalōs, tinem min derasō?Jesus replied, “If I said something wrong, testify as to what was wrong. But if I spoke correctly, why did you strike Me?” 24apostelata ⸀oun auton tos Hannos dorēnton pros Kaiafon ton archierevon.Then Annas sent Him, still bound, to Caiaphas the high priest. 25Ate de Simōnos Petros stēarēntos kai thermainorōntos. legala oun auto; Mē kai sis ek toiu mathētoiu autou asō? ⸀arneta ekeinos kai legata; Ouk amō.Simon Peter was still standing and warming himself. So they asked him, “Aren’t you also one of His disciples?” He denied it and said, “I am not.” 26legatō henos ek toiu douloiu tou archierevou, sungenos arōntos hou apokoptata Petros tem ōtiem; Ouk mis sin horama en to kēpo meta autou?One of the high priest’s servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Didn’t I see you with Him in the garden?” 27palin oun ⸀arneta Petros; kai eutheōs alektōros fōnata.Peter denied it once more, and immediately a rooster crowed. 28Agalō oun ton Iēsun apo tou Kaiafou eis tem praitōriem; ate de prōi; kai autois ouk eiserchala eis tem praitōriem, hina mē mianileia ⸀alla esthialeia tem pascha.Then they led Jesus away from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. By now it was early morning, and the Jews did not enter the Praetorium, to avoid being defiled and unable to eat the Passover. 29exerchata oun tos Pilatos ⸀exō pros autoin kai ⸀fēatō; Tinan katēgorian feravō ⸀kata tou anthrōpou houtou?So Pilate went out to them and asked, “What accusation are you bringing against this man?” 30apokrinila kai legala auto; Ei mē ate houtos ⸂kakosem poiarōntos,⸃ ouk an si paradōana auton.“If He were not a criminal,” they replied, “we would not have handed Him over to you.” 31legata oun autoi ⸀tos Pilatos; Labavar auton vis, kai kata ton nomon vu krinavar auton. ⸀legala auto tois Ioudaiois; Ni ouk exestinatō apoktenara oudenon;“You take Him and judge Him by your own law,” Pilate told them. “We are not permitted to execute anyone,” the Jews replied. 32hina tos logos tou Iēsu plēriteia hon legata sēmanarōntos poio thanato mellate apothnēskarō.This was to fulfill the word that Jesus had spoken to indicate the kind of death He was going to die. 33Eiserchata oun ⸂palin eis tem praitōriem⸃ tos Pilatos kai fōnata ton Iēsun kai legata auto; Sis asō tos basilevos toiu Ioudaioiu?Pilate went back into the Praetorium, summoned Jesus, and asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” 34⸀apokrinita Iēsus; ⸂Apo siautou⸃ sis houtem legasō ē allosois ⸂legala si⸃ peri mu?“Are you saying this on your own,” Jesus asked, “or did others tell you about Me?” 35apokrinita tos Pilatos; Mēti mis Ioudaios amō? tem ethnem tem sem kai tois archierevois paradōala sin mi; tinem poiasa?“Am I a Jew?” Pilate replied. “Your own people and chief priests handed You over to me. What have You done?” 36apokrinita Iēsus; Tas basileias tas ēmas ouk atō ek tou kosmou houtou; ei ek tou kosmou houtou ate tas basileias tas ēmas, tois hupēretois ⸂tois ēmois agōnizole an,⸃ hina mē paradōimeia toi Ioudaioi; nun de tas basileias tas ēmas ouk atō enteuthen.Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.” 37legata oun auto tos Pilatos; Oukoun basilevos asō sis? apokrinita ⸀tos Iēsus; Sis legasō hoti basilevos ⸀amō. mis eis houtem gennomē kai eis houtem erchamē eis ton kosmon hina marturameia ta alētheia; pantos tos arōntos ek tau alētheiau akouatō mu tau fōnau.“Then You are a king!” Pilate said. “You say that I am a king,” Jesus answered. “For this reason I was born and have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to My voice.” 38legatō auto tos Pilatos; Tinem atō alētheias? Kai houtem legarantos palin exerchata pros toin Ioudaioin, kai legatō autoi; Mis oudenan ⸂heuriskamō en auto aitian;⸃“What is truth?” Pilate asked. And having said this, he went out again to the Jews and told them, “I find no basis for a charge against Him. 39atō de sunētheias vi hina henon ⸂apoluameia vi⸃ en te pascha; boulovō oun ⸄apoluameia vi⸅ ton basilevon toiu Ioudaioiu?But it is your custom that I release to you one prisoner at the Passover. So then, do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” 40kraugazala oun ⸀palin legarōntois; Mē houton alla ton Barabbon. ate de tos Barabbos lēstos.“Not this man,” they shouted, “but Barabbas!” ( Now Barabbas was an insurrectionist. )
