John 18:13-28

13They brought Him firstG71G4412 toG4314 AnnasG452, who wasG1510 the father-in-lawG3995 of CaiaphasG2533, the high priestG749 that yearG1763. 14CaiaphasG2533 wasG1510 theG3588 one who had advisedG4823 theG3588 JewsG2453 thatG3754 it would be better ifG4851 oneG1520 manG444 diedG599 forG5228 theG3588 peopleG2992.

15NowG1161 SimonG4613 PeterG4074 andG2532 anotherG243 discipleG3101 were followingG190 JesusG2424. SinceG3588 thatG1565 discipleG3101 wasG1510 knownG1110 to theG3588 high priestG749, he also wentG2532G4897 with JesusG2424 intoG1519 theG3588 courtyardG833 of theG3588 high priestG749. 16ButG1161 PeterG4074 stoodG2476 outsideG1854 atG4314 theG3588 doorG2374. ThenG3767 theG3588 discipleG3101 who wasG3588 knownG1110 to theG3588 high priestG749 went outG1831 andG2532 spokeG2036 to theG3588 doorkeeperG2377, andG2532 broughtG1521 PeterG4074 in.

17At thisG3767, theG3588 servant girlG3814 watching the doorG2377 saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “Aren’tG1510G3361 youG4771 alsoG2532 one ofG1537 thisG3778 man’sG444 disciplesG3101?”

“I amG1510 notG3756,” heG1565 answeredG3004.

BecauseG3754 it wasG1510 coldG5592, theG3588 servantsG1401 andG2532 officersG5257 were standing aroundG2476 a charcoal fireG439 they had madeG4160 to keep warmG2328. AndG1161 PeterG4074 wasG1510 alsoG2532 standingG2476 withG3326 themG846, warming himselfG2328.

19MeanwhileG3767, theG3588 high priestG749 questionedG2065 JesusG2424 aboutG4012 HisG846 disciplesG3101 andG2532 HisG846 teachingG1322.

20“IG1473 have spokenG2980 openlyG3954 to theG3588 worldG2889,” JesusG2424 answeredG611. “IG1473 alwaysG3842 taughtG1321 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 andG2532 atG1722 theG3588 templeG2411, whereG3699 allG3956 theG3588 JewsG2453 come togetherG4905. I saidG2980 nothingG3762 inG1722 secretG2927. 21WhyG5101 are you askingG2065 MeG1473? AskG2065 those whoG3588 heardG191 My messageG5101G2980G846. SurelyG2400 theyG3778 knowG1492 whatG3739 IG1473 saidG2036.”

22When Jesus had saidG2036 this, oneG1520 of theG3588 officersG5257 standing nearbyG3936 slapped Him in the faceG1325G4475G3588G2424 and saidG2036, “Is this howG3779 You answerG611 theG3588 high priestG749?”

23JesusG2424 repliedG611, “IfG1487 I saidG2980 something wrongG2560, testifyG3140 as toG4012 whatG3588 was wrongG2556. ButG1161 ifG1487 I spoke correctlyG2573, whyG5101 did you strikeG1194 MeG1473?”

24ThenG3767 AnnasG452 sentG649 HimG846, still boundG1210, toG4314 CaiaphasG2533 theG3588 high priestG749.

25SimonG4613 PeterG4074 wasG1510 stillG1161 standingG2476 andG2532 warming himselfG2328. SoG3767 they askedG2036 himG846, “Aren’tG1510G3361 youG4771 alsoG2532 one ofG1537 HisG846 disciplesG3101?”

HeG1565 deniedG720 it andG2532 saidG2036, “I amG1510 notG3756.”

26OneG1520 ofG1537 theG3588 high priest’sG3588G749 servantsG1401, a relativeG4773 of the man whoseG3739 earG5621 PeterG4074 had cut offG609, askedG3004, “Didn’tG3756 IG1473 seeG3708 youG4771 withG3326 HimG846 inG1722 theG3588 gardenG2779?”

27PeterG4074 deniedG720 it once moreG3767G3825, andG2532 immediatelyG2112 a roosterG220 crowedG5455.

28ThenG3767 they ledG71 JesusG2424 away fromG575 CaiaphasG2533 intoG1519 theG3588 PraetoriumG4232. By nowG1161 it wasG1510 early morningG4404, andG2532 the Jews did notG3756 enterG1525G1519 theG3588 PraetoriumG4232, toG2443 avoidG3361 being defiledG3392 and unable to eatG5315 theG3588 PassoverG3957.
