John 18
English Standard Version
Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus
18 When Jesus had spoken these words, (A)he went out with his disciples across (B)the brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which he and his disciples entered. 2 Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew (C)the place, for (D)Jesus often met there with his disciples. 3 (E)So Judas, having procured a band of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, went there with lanterns and torches and weapons. 4 Then Jesus, (F)knowing all that would happen to him, came forward and said to them, (G)“Whom do you seek?” 5 They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.”[a] Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them. 6 (H)When Jesus[b] said to them, “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground. 7 So he asked them again, (I)“Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.” 8 Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go.” 9 (J)This was to fulfill the word that he had spoken: “Of those whom you gave me I have lost not one.” 10 Then Simon Peter, (K)having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant[c] and cut off his right ear. (The servant's name was Malchus.) 11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into its sheath; (L)shall I not drink the cup that the Father has given me?”
Jesus Faces Annas and Caiaphas
12 So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews[d] arrested Jesus and bound him. 13 First they (M)led him to (N)Annas, for he was the father-in-law of (O)Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. 14 It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews (P)that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.
Peter Denies Jesus
15 (Q)Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, 16 (R)but Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the servant girl who kept watch at the door, and brought Peter in. 17 (S)The servant girl at the door said to Peter, “You also are not one of this man's disciples, are you?” He said, “I am not.” 18 Now the servants[e] and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves. (T)Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.
The High Priest Questions Jesus
19 (U)The high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. 20 Jesus answered him, “I have spoken (V)openly (W)to the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. (X)I have said nothing in secret. 21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them; they know what I said.” 22 When he had said these things, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, (Y)“Is that how you answer the high priest?” 23 Jesus answered him, “If what I said is wrong, bear witness about the wrong; but if what I said is right, why do you strike me?” 24 (Z)Annas then sent him bound to (AA)Caiaphas the high priest.
Peter Denies Jesus Again
25 (AB)Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “You also are not one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it and said, “I am not.” 26 One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of (AC)the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Did I not see you (AD)in the garden with him?” 27 Peter again denied it, and (AE)at once a rooster crowed.
Jesus Before Pilate
28 (AF)Then they led Jesus (AG)from the house of Caiaphas to (AH)the governor's headquarters.[f] It was early morning. They themselves did not enter the governor's headquarters, (AI)so that they would not be defiled, (AJ)but could eat the Passover. 29 (AK)So Pilate went outside to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?” 30 They answered him, “If this man were not doing evil, we would not have delivered him over to you.” 31 Pilate said to them, (AL)“Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law.” The Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death.” 32 (AM)This was to fulfill the word that Jesus had spoken (AN)to show by what kind of death he was going to die.
My Kingdom Is Not of This World
33 (AO)So Pilate entered his headquarters again and called Jesus and said to him, (AP)“Are you the King of the Jews?” 34 Jesus answered, “Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?” 35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. What have you done?” 36 Jesus answered, (AQ)“My kingdom (AR)is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, (AS)my servants would have been fighting, that (AT)I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.” 37 Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, (AU)“You say that I am a king. (AV)For this purpose I was born and for this purpose (AW)I have come into the world—(AX)to bear witness to the truth. (AY)Everyone who is (AZ)of the truth (BA)listens to my voice.” 38 Pilate said to him, “What is truth?”
After he had said this, (BB)he went back outside to the Jews and told them, (BC)“I find no guilt in him. 39 (BD)But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” 40 They cried out again, (BE)“Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.[g]

12 So oun the ho detachment speira of soldiers , · kai their ho captain chiliarchos, and kai the ho officers hypēretēs of the ho Jews Ioudaios arrested syllambanō · ho Jesus Iēsous and kai bound deō him autos. 13 · kai They took agō him first prōton to pros Annas Hannas, for gar he was eimi the father-in-law pentheros of ho Caiaphas Kaiaphas, who hos was eimi high archiereus priest · ho that ekeinos year eniautos. 14 Caiaphas Kaiaphas was eimi · de the ho man who had advised symbouleuō the ho Jews Ioudaios that hoti it was to their advantage sympherō that one heis man anthrōpos die apothnēskō for hyper the ho people laos.
15 Simon Simōn Peter Petros was following akoloutheō · de · ho Jesus Iēsous along kai with another allos disciple mathētēs. · ho Since de that ekeinos disciple mathētēs was eimi known gnōstos to the ho high archiereus priest , · kai he went syneiserchomai with · ho Jesus Iēsous into eis the ho courtyard aulē of the ho high archiereus priest , 16 · ho but de Peter Petros remained histēmi outside exō at pros the ho door thura.

19 Meanwhile oun the ho high archiereus priest questioned erōtaō · ho Jesus Iēsous about peri · ho his autos disciples mathētēs and kai about peri · ho his autos teaching didachē. 20 Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai him autos, “ I egō have spoken laleō openly parrēsia to the ho world kosmos. I egō have always pantote taught didaskō in en the synagogue synagōgē and kai in en the ho temple hieron, where hopou all pas · ho Jews Ioudaios come together synerchomai. · kai I have said laleō nothing oudeis in en secret kryptos. 21 Why tis do you question erōtaō me egō?

25 Now de Simon Simōn Peter Petros was eimi still standing histēmi and kai warming thermainō himself , so oun they said legō to him autos, “ You sy are eimi not mē · kai one of ek · ho his autos disciples mathētēs, are you?” Peter ekeinos denied arneomai it and kai said legō, “ I am eimi not ou!” 26 One heis of ek the ho servants of the ho high archiereus priest , a relative syngenēs of the man whose hos ear ōtion Peter Petros had cut apokoptō off , · ho said legō, “ I egō saw you sy in en the ho garden kēpos with meta him autos, did I not ou?” 27 Then oun Peter Petros denied arneomai it again palin, and kai immediately eutheōs a rooster alektōr began to crow phōneō.
28 Then oun they took agō · ho Jesus Iēsous from apo · ho Caiaphas Kaiaphas to eis the ho governor’ s praitōrion headquarters .

33 Then oun Pilate Pilatos entered eiserchomai his ho headquarters praitōrion again palin, · ho · kai summoned phōneō · ho Jesus Iēsous and kai said legō to him autos, “ Are eimi you sy the ho king basileus of the ho Jews Ioudaios?” 34 Jesus Iēsous responded apokrinomai, “ Are legō you sy saying legō this houtos of apo your seautou own accord, or ē did others allos tell legō you sy about peri me egō?” 35 Pilate Pilatos answered apokrinomai, · ho “ I egō am eimi not mēti a Jew Ioudaios, am I? · ho Your own sos people ethnos · ho and kai the ho chief archiereus priests handed paradidōmi you sy over to me egō. What tis have you done poieō?” 36 Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · ho “ My emos kingdom basileia · ho is eimi not ou of ek · ho this houtos world kosmos; if ei my emos kingdom basileia were eimi of ek · ho this houtos world kosmos, · ho · ho · ho my emos subjects hypēretēs · ho would an be fighting agōnizomai to hina prevent mē me from being handed paradidōmi over to the ho Jews Ioudaios; but de as nyn it is · ho my emos kingdom basileia · ho is eimi not ou from here enteuthen.” 37 Therefore oun Pilate Pilatos said legō to him autos, · ho “ So oukoun you sy are eimi a king basileus, then?” Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · ho “ You sy say legō that hoti I am eimi a king basileus!
