1JesusG2424, having saidG3004 these thingsG3778, wentG1831 out with his disciplesG3101 beyond the torrent Cedron, whereG3699 wasG1510 a gardenG2779, into which he enteredG1525, he and his disciplesG3101. 2And JudasG2455 alsoG2532, who deliveredG3860 him up, knew the placeG5117, because JesusG2424 was oftenG4178 there, in company with his disciplesG3101. 3JudasG2455 thereforeG3767, having got the band, and officersG5257 of the chiefG749 priestsG749 and PhariseesG5330, comesG2064 there with lanterns and torches and weaponsG3696. 4JesusG2424 thereforeG3767, knowing all thingsG3956 that were comingG2064 upon him, wentG1831 forthG1831 and saidG3004 to them, Whom seekG2212 ye? 5They answeredG611 him, JesusG2424 the Nazaraean. JesusG2424 saysG3004 to them, I amG1510 [he]. And JudasG2455 alsoG2532, who deliveredG3860 him up, stoodG2476 with them. 6WhenG5613 thereforeG3767 he saidG3004 to them, I amG1510 [he], they wentG565 awayG565 backward and fellG4098 to the groundG5476. 7He demanded of them thereforeG3767 againG3825, Whom seekG2212 ye? And they saidG3004, JesusG2424 the Nazaraean. 8JesusG2424 answeredG611, I toldG3004 you that I amG1510 [he]: if thereforeG3767 ye seekG2212 me, let these goG5217 awayG5217; 9that the wordG3056 might be fulfilled which he spokeG3004, [As to] those whom thou hast givenG1325 me, I have not lostG622 oneG3762 of them. 10SimonG4613 PeterG4074 thereforeG3767, having a swordG3162, drewG1670 it, and smote the bondman of the highG749 priestG749 and cutG609 off his rightG1188 earG5621; and the bondman's nameG3686 wasG1510 Malchus. 11JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 to PeterG4074, PutG906 the swordG3162 into the sheath; the cupG4221 which the FatherG3962 has givenG1325 me, shall I not drinkG4095 it? 12The band thereforeG3767, and the chiliarch, and the officersG5257 of the JewsG2453, took JesusG2424 and boundG1210 him: 13and they ledG71 him awayG71 to AnnasG452 firstG4413; for he wasG1510 father-in-law to CaiaphasG2533, who wasG1510 highG749 priestG749 that yearG1763. 14But it wasG1510 CaiaphasG2533 who counselled the JewsG2453 that it wasG1510 better that oneG1520 manG444 should perish for the peopleG2992. 15NowG1161 SimonG4613 PeterG4074 followedG190 JesusG2424, and the otherG243 discipleG3101. But that discipleG3101 wasG1510 known to the highG749 priestG749, and went in with JesusG2424 into the palace of the highG749 priestG749; 16but PeterG4074 stoodG2476 at the doorG2374 without. The otherG243 discipleG3101 thereforeG3767, who was known to the highG749 priestG749, wentG1831 out and spokeG3004 to the porteress and broughtG1521 in PeterG4074. 17The maid thereforeG3767, who wasG1510 porteress, saysG3004 to PeterG4074, Art thou alsoG2532 of the disciplesG3101 of this manG444? He saysG3004, I amG1510 not. 18But the bondmen and officersG5257, having madeG4160 a fireG439 of coals (for it wasG1510 coldG5592), stoodG2476 and warmedG2328 themselves; and PeterG4074 wasG1510 standingG2476 with them and warmingG2328 himself. 19The highG749 priestG749 thereforeG3767 demanded of JesusG2424 concerningG4012 his disciplesG3101 and concerningG4012 his doctrine. 20JesusG2424 answeredG611 him, I spokeG2980 openlyG3954 to the worldG2889; I taughtG1321 alwaysG3842 in [the] synagogueG4864 and in the temple, whereG3699 all the JewsG2453 comeG4905 togetherG4905, and in secretG2927 I have spokenG2980 nothing. 21WhyG5101 demandest thou of me? Demand of those who have heardG191, what I have spokenG2980 to them; beholdG2396, they know what I have saidG3004. 22But as he saidG3004 these thingsG3778, oneG1520 of the officersG5257 who stoodG3936 by gaveG1325 a blow on the face to JesusG2424, sayingG3004, Answerest thou the highG749 priestG749 thusG3779? 23JesusG2424 answeredG611 him, If I have spokenG2980 evilG2556, bearG3140 witnessG3140 of the evilG2556; but if wellG2573, whyG5101 smitest thou me? 24AnnasG452 [thenG3767] had sentG649 him boundG1210 to CaiaphasG2533 the highG749 priestG749. 25But SimonG4613 PeterG4074 wasG1510 standingG2476 and warmingG2328 himself. They saidG3004 thereforeG3767 to him, Art thou alsoG2532 of his disciplesG3101? He deniedG720, and saidG3004, I amG1510 not. 26OneG1520 of the bondmen of the highG749 priestG749, who wasG1510 kinsman of him whose earG5621 PeterG4074 cutG609 off, saysG3004, Did not I seeG3708 thee in the gardenG2779 with him? 27PeterG4074 deniedG720 thereforeG3767 againG3825, and immediatelyG2112 [the] cock crew. 28They leadG71 thereforeG3767 JesusG2424 from CaiaphasG2533 to the praetoriumG4232; and it wasG1510 earlyG4404 morn. And they enteredG1525 not into the praetoriumG4232, that they might not beG1510 defiled, but eatG2068 the passoverG3957. 29PilateG4091 thereforeG3767 wentG1831 out to them and saidG5346, What accusationG2724 do ye bringG5342 against this manG444? 30They answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, If this [manG3778] wereG1510 not an evildoer, we should not have deliveredG3860 him up to thee. 31PilateG4091 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 to them, TakeG2983 him, ye, and judgeG2919 him accordingG2596 to your lawG3551. The JewsG2453 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 to him, It is not permitted to us to putG615 any oneG3762 to deathG615; 32that the wordG3056 of JesusG2424 might be fulfilled which he spokeG3004, signifyingG4591 what deathG2288 he should dieG599. 33PilateG4091 thereforeG3767 enteredG1525 againG3825 into the praetoriumG4232 and called JesusG2424, and saidG3004 to him, Thou art the kingG935 of the JewsG2453? 34JesusG2424 answeredG611 [him], Dost thou sayG3004 this of thyself, or have othersG243 saidG3004 it to thee concerningG4012 me? 35PilateG4091 answeredG611, AmG1510 I a JewG2453? Thy nationG1484 and the chiefG749 priestsG749 have deliveredG3860 thee up to me: what hast thou done? 36JesusG2424 answeredG611, My kingdomG932 isG1510 not of this worldG2889; if my kingdomG932 wereG1510 of this worldG2889, my servantsG5257 had fought that I might not beG1510 deliveredG3860 up to the JewsG2453; but nowG1161 my kingdomG932 isG1510 not from hence. 37PilateG4091 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 to him, Thou art then a kingG935? JesusG2424 answeredG611, Thou sayest [it], that I amG1510 a kingG935. I have beenG1510 bornG1080 for this, and for this I have comeG2064 into the worldG2889, that I might bearG3140 witnessG3140 to the truthG225. Every oneG3778 that isG1510 of the truthG225 hearsG191 my voiceG5456. 38PilateG4091 saysG3004 to him, What isG1510 truthG225? And having saidG3004 this he wentG1831 out againG3825 to the JewsG2453, and saysG3004 to them, I findG2147 no fault whatever in him. 39But ye have a customG4914 that I releaseG630 [some] oneG1520 to you at the passoverG3957; will ye thereforeG3767 that I releaseG630 unto you the kingG935 of the JewsG2453? 40They cried thereforeG3767 againG3825 all, sayingG3004, Not this [manG3778], but BarabbasG912. NowG1161 BarabbasG912 wasG1510 a robberG3027.
