John 18:13-24

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.
