John 18:2-23

2NowG1161 JudasG2455 alsoG2532, who was 1betrayingG3860 Him, knewG3609 the placeG5117, for JesusG2424 had 2oftenG4178 metG4863 thereG1563 with His disciplesG3101. 33JudasG2455 thenG3767, having receivedG2983 4the Roman 5cohortG4686 and 6officersG5257 from the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the PhariseesG5330, cameG2064 thereG1563 with lanternsG5322 and 7torchesG2985 and weaponsG3696. 4SoG3767 JesusG2424, 8knowingG3609 allG3956 the thingsG3956 that were comingG2064 upon Him, wentG1831 forthG1831 and saidG3004 to them, “9WhomG5101 do you seekG2212?” 5They answeredG611 Him, “JesusG2424 the NazareneG3480.” He saidG3004 to them, “I amG1510 He.” And JudasG2455 alsoG2532, who was betrayingG3860 Him, was standingG2476 with them. 6SoG3767 whenG5613 He saidG3004 to them, “I amG1510 He,” they drewG565 backG3694 and fellG4098 to the groundG5476. 7ThereforeG3767 He againG3825 askedG1905 them, “10WhomG5101 do you seekG2212?” And they saidG3004, “JesusG2424 the NazareneG3480.” 8JesusG2424 answeredG611, “I toldG3004 you that I amG1510 He; soG3767 ifG1487 you seekG2212 Me, letG863 theseG3778 goG5217 their wayG5217,” 9to fulfillG4137 the wordG3056 whichG3739 He spokeG3004, “11Of those whomG3739 You have givenG1325 Me I lostG622 not oneG3762.” 10SimonG4613 PeterG4074 thenG3767, 12havingG2192 a swordG3162, drewG1670 it and struckG3817 the highG749 priest’sG749 slaveG1401, and cutG609 offG609 his rightG1188 earG5621; and the slave’sG1401 nameG3686 was MalchusG3124. 11SoG3767 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “PutG906 the swordG3162 into the sheathG2336; 13the cupG4221 whichG3739 the FatherG3962 has givenG1325 Me, shall I not drinkG4095 it?”

1214SoG3767 15the Roman 16cohortG4686 and the 17commanderG5506 and the 18officersG5257 of the JewsG2453, arrestedG4815 JesusG2424 and boundG1210 Him, 13and ledG71 Him to 19AnnasG452 firstG4413; for he was father-in-lawG3995 of 20CaiaphasG2533, whoG3739 was highG749 priestG749 that yearG1763. 14NowG1161 CaiaphasG2533 was the one who had advisedG4823 the JewsG2453 that 21it was expedientG4851 for oneG1520 manG444 to dieG599 on behalfG5228 of the peopleG2992.

1522SimonG4613 PeterG4074 was followingG190 JesusG2424, and so was anotherG243 discipleG3101. NowG1161 that discipleG3101 was knownG1110 to the highG749 priestG749, and enteredG4897 with JesusG2424 into 23the courtG833 of the highG749 priestG749, 1624but PeterG4074 was standingG2476 at the doorG2374 outsideG1854. SoG3767 the otherG243 discipleG3101, who was knownG1110 to the highG749 priestG749, wentG1831 out and spokeG3004 to the doorkeeperG2377, and broughtG1521 PeterG4074 in. 1725ThenG3767 the slave-girlG3814 who keptG2377 the doorG2377 saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “26You are not alsoG2532 one of thisG3778 man’sG444 disciplesG3101, are you?” He saidG3004, “I amG1510 not.” 18NowG1161 the slavesG1401 and the 27officersG5257 were standingG2476 there, having madeG4160 28a charcoalG439 fireG439, for it was coldG5592 and they were 29warmingG2328 themselves; and PeterG4074 was alsoG2532 with them, standingG2476 and warmingG2328 himself.

1930The highG749 priestG749 thenG3767 questionedG2065 JesusG2424 aboutG4012 His disciplesG3101, and aboutG4012 His teachingG1322. 20JesusG2424 answeredG611 him, “I 31have spokenG2980 openlyG3954 to the worldG2889; I alwaysG3842 32taughtG1321 in 33synagoguesG4864 and 34in the templeG2413, whereG3699 allG3956 the JewsG2453 comeG4905 togetherG4905; and I spokeG2980 nothingG3762 in secretG2927. 21WhyG5101 do you questionG2065 Me? QuestionG2065 thoseG3588 who have heardG191 whatG5101 I spokeG2980 to them; they knowG3609 whatG3739 I saidG3004.” 22When He had saidG3004 thisG3778, oneG1520 of the 35officersG5257 standingG3936 nearbyG3936 36struckG1325G4475 JesusG2424, sayingG3004, “Is that the wayG3779 You answerG611 the highG749 priestG749?” 2337JesusG2424 answeredG611 him, “IfG1487 I have spokenG2980 wronglyG2560, testifyG3140 of the wrongG2556; but ifG1487 rightlyG2573, whyG5101 do you strikeG1194 Me?”
