Исуса хапсе

18 Када је ово изрекао, Исус је са својим ученицима прешао преко потока Кидрона где је био врт. Тамо је отишао са својим ученицима.

А Јуда, издајник, је знао за ово место, јер се Исус тамо често налазио са својим ученицима.

Дошао је тамо, водећи са собом чету војника и храмске стражаре, које су послали водећи свештеници и фарисеји. Са собом су носили бакље, светиљке и оружје.

Исус, знајући шта ће му се све догодити, изађе и упита их: „Кога тражите?“

Они му одговорише: „Исуса Назарећанина.“

Исус одговори: „Ја сам.“ Јуда, издајник, стајао је међу њима. Када је Исус рекао: „Ја сам“ – они устукнуше и попадаше на земљу.

Исус их поново упита: „Кога тражите?“

Они одговоре: „Исуса Назарећанина.“

Исус им одговори: „Нисам ли вам рекао да сам то ја? Али, ако мене тражите, пустите онда ове што су са мном да иду.“

То се догодило да се испуне речи које је Исус изрекао: „Ниједног од оних које си ми дао нисам изгубио.“

10 Тада Симон Петар извуче мач који је имао са собом, па удари Првосвештениковог слугу и одсече му десно ухо. Слуга се звао Малхо.

11 Исус рече Петру: „Врати мач у корице! Зар да не испијем чашу коју ми је Отац дао?“

12 Тада војници са заповедником и јудејским старешинама ухвате Исуса и свежу га. 13 Прво су га одвели Ани, јер је он био Кајафин таст, а Кајафа је те године био Првосвештеник. 14 Кајафа је био онај што је саветовао Јевреје да је боље да један човек умре за народ.

15 А Симон Петар и један други ученик следили су Исуса. Тај ученик је познавао Првосвештеника, па је ушао са Исусом у Првосвештениково двориште. 16 Петар је остао да стоји пред вратима. Онај други ученик, који је познао Првосвештеника, изашао је тада, разговарао са вратарком и увео Петра у двориште.

17 Тада слушкиња вратарка рече Петру: „Да ниси и ти један од ученика оног човека?“

„Нисам“ – одговори Петар.

18 Пошто је било хладно, слуге и стражари су заложили ватру, па су стајали око ње и грејали се. И Петар је тамо стајао са њима и грејао се.

Првосвештеник испитује Исуса

19 У међувремену, Првосвештеник је испитивао Исуса о његовим ученицима и о његовом учењу.

20 Исус му одговори: „Говорио сам јавно пред народом. Увек сам поучавао у синагоги и у храму где се сви Јевреји окупљају. Ништа нисам говорио тајно. 21 Зашто питаш мене? Питај оне који су слушали шта сам им говорио. Они знају шта сам рекао.“

22 Кад је Исус рекао ово, један од стражара који је ту стајао ошамари га и рече: „Зар се тако одговара Првосвештенику?!“ 23 Исус му одговори: „Ако сам рекао нешто што не ваља, докажи да то не ваља. Али, ако сам у праву, због чега ме удараш?“ 24 Тада га је Ана свезаног послао Првосвештенику Кајафи.

Петар се поново одриче Исуса

25 Симон Петар је у међувремену стајао око ватре и грејао се. Тада му је неко рекао: „Зар ниси и ти један од његових ученика?“

Петар то порече, говорећи: „Не, нисам!“

26 Један од Првосвештеникових слугу, рођак оног слуге коме је Петар одсекао ухо, такође му рече: „Зар те нисам видео с њим у врту?“ 27 Петар поново порече и уто се огласи петао.

Исус пред Пилатом

28 Рано ујутро су Исуса одвели од Кајафе у преторијум. Јудејске вође нису ушле у преторијум, да не би постали обредно нечисти уочи пасхалне вечере. 29 Пилат изађе пред њих и упита: „За шта оптужујете овог човека?“

30 „Зар бисмо га довели пред тебе да није починио злочин?“ – одговорише му они. 31 Пилат им рече: „Узмите га, па му судите по вашем Закону!“

Јудејске вође му одговорише: „Ми никог не смемо да погубимо.“

32 Ово се догодило да се испуне Исусове речи, које је изрекао да би наговестио каквом ће смрћу умрети.

33 Пилат се онда вратио у преторијум и позвао Исуса. Питао га је: „Јеси ли ти Цар јудејски?“

34 Исус одговори: „Питаш ли то тек тако или су ти други говорили о мени?“

35 Пилат одговори: „Зар сам ја Јеврејин? Твој народ и водећи свештеници су те предали мени. Шта си учинио?“

36 Исус одговори: „Моје Царство не припада овом свету. Када би моје Царство припадало овом свету, моји поданици би се борили да не будем предан Јеврејима. Међутим, моје Царство није одавде.“

37 Тада га Пилат упита: „Шта, дакле? Јеси ли цар?“

„Ти кажеш да сам Цар – одговори му Исус. Ја сам се родио и дошао на свет да бих сведочио за истину. Свако ко је од истине, слуша мој глас.“

38 Пилат упита: „Шта је истина?“ Рекавши ово, Пилат је поново изашао пред јудејске вође и рекао им: „Ја не налазим никакву кривицу на њему! 39 Код вас је обичај да вам за Пасху ослободим једног затвореника. Хоћете ли да вам ослободим Цара јудејског?“

40 Они поново повикаше: „Не њега, него Вараву!“ (Тај Варава је био одметник.)

Jesus Arrested(A)

18 When he had finished praying, Jesus left with his disciples and crossed the Kidron Valley.(B) On the other side there was a garden,(C) and he and his disciples went into it.(D)

Now Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with his disciples.(E) So Judas came to the garden, guiding(F) a detachment of soldiers and some officials from the chief priests and the Pharisees.(G) They were carrying torches, lanterns and weapons.

Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him,(H) went out and asked them, “Who is it you want?”(I)

“Jesus of Nazareth,”(J) they replied.

“I am he,” Jesus said. (And Judas the traitor was standing there with them.) When Jesus said, “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

Again he asked them, “Who is it you want?”(K)

“Jesus of Nazareth,” they said.

Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If you are looking for me, then let these men go.” This happened so that the words he had spoken would be fulfilled: “I have not lost one of those you gave me.”[a](L)

10 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.)

11 Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup(M) the Father has given me?”

12 Then the detachment of soldiers with its commander and the Jewish officials(N) arrested Jesus. They bound him 13 and brought him first to Annas, who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas,(O) the high priest that year. 14 Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jewish leaders that it would be good if one man died for the people.(P)

Peter’s First Denial(Q)

15 Simon Peter and another disciple were following Jesus. Because this disciple was known to the high priest,(R) he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard,(S) 16 but Peter had to wait outside at the door. The other disciple, who was known to the high priest, came back, spoke to the servant girl on duty there and brought Peter in.

17 “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?” she asked Peter.

He replied, “I am not.”(T)

18 It was cold, and the servants and officials stood around a fire(U) they had made to keep warm. Peter also was standing with them, warming himself.(V)

The High Priest Questions Jesus(W)

19 Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

20 “I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus replied. “I always taught in synagogues(X) or at the temple,(Y) where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret.(Z) 21 Why question me? Ask those who heard me. Surely they know what I said.”

22 When Jesus said this, one of the officials(AA) nearby slapped him in the face.(AB) “Is this the way you answer the high priest?” he demanded.

23 “If I said something wrong,” Jesus replied, “testify as to what is wrong. But if I spoke the truth, why did you strike me?”(AC) 24 Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas(AD) the high priest.

Peter’s Second and Third Denials(AE)

25 Meanwhile, Simon Peter was still standing there warming himself.(AF) So they asked him, “You aren’t one of his disciples too, are you?”

He denied it, saying, “I am not.”(AG)

26 One of the high priest’s servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off,(AH) challenged him, “Didn’t I see you with him in the garden?”(AI) 27 Again Peter denied it, and at that moment a rooster began to crow.(AJ)

Jesus Before Pilate(AK)

28 Then the Jewish leaders took Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman governor.(AL) By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness they did not enter the palace,(AM) because they wanted to be able to eat the Passover.(AN) 29 So Pilate came out to them and asked, “What charges are you bringing against this man?”

30 “If he were not a criminal,” they replied, “we would not have handed him over to you.”

31 Pilate said, “Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law.”

“But we have no right to execute anyone,” they objected. 32 This took place to fulfill what Jesus had said about the kind of death he was going to die.(AO)

33 Pilate then went back inside the palace,(AP) summoned Jesus and asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”(AQ)

34 “Is that your own idea,” Jesus asked, “or did others talk to you about me?”

35 “Am I a Jew?” Pilate replied. “Your own people and chief priests handed you over to me. What is it you have done?”

36 Jesus said, “My kingdom(AR) is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders.(AS) But now my kingdom is from another place.”(AT)

37 “You are a king, then!” said Pilate.

Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth.(AU) Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”(AV)

38 “What is truth?” retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, “I find no basis for a charge against him.(AW) 39 But it is your custom for me to release to you one prisoner at the time of the Passover. Do you want me to release ‘the king of the Jews’?”

40 They shouted back, “No, not him! Give us Barabbas!” Now Barabbas had taken part in an uprising.(AX)

Betrayal and Arrest in Gethsemane(A)

18 When Jesus had spoken these words, (B)He went out with His disciples over (C)the Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciples entered. And Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place; (D)for Jesus often met there with His disciples. (E)Then Judas, having received a detachment of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons. Jesus therefore, (F)knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, “Whom are you seeking?”

They answered Him, (G)“Jesus [a]of Nazareth.”

Jesus said to them, “I am He. And Judas, who (H)betrayed Him, also stood with them. Now when He said to them, “I am He, they drew back and fell to the ground.

Then He asked them again, “Whom are you seeking?”

And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”

Jesus answered, “I have told you that I am He. Therefore, if you seek Me, let these go their way,” that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, (I)“Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none.”

10 (J)Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.

11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink (K)the cup which My Father has given Me?”

Before the High Priest

12 Then the detachment of troops and the captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him. 13 And (L)they led Him away to (M)Annas first, for he was the father-in-law of (N)Caiaphas who was high priest that year. 14 (O)Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was [b]expedient that one man should die for the people.

Peter Denies Jesus(P)

15 (Q)And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did (R)another[c] disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest. 16 (S)But Peter stood at the door outside. Then the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought Peter in. 17 Then the servant girl who kept the door said to Peter, “You are not also one of this Man’s disciples, are you?”

He said, “I am (T)not.”

18 Now the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself.

Jesus Questioned by the High Priest

19 The high priest then asked Jesus about His disciples and His doctrine.

20 Jesus answered him, (U)“I spoke openly to the world. I always taught (V)in synagogues and (W)in the temple, where [d]the Jews always meet, and in secret I have said nothing. 21 Why do you ask Me? Ask (X)those who have heard Me what I said to them. Indeed they know what I said.”

22 And when He had said these things, one of the officers who stood by (Y)struck[e] Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, “Do You answer the high priest like that?”

23 Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why do you strike Me?”

24 (Z)Then Annas sent Him bound to (AA)Caiaphas the high priest.

Peter Denies Twice More

25 Now Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. (AB)Therefore they said to him, “You are not also 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 him whose ear Peter cut off, said, “Did I not see you in the garden with Him?” 27 Peter then denied again; and (AC)immediately a rooster crowed.

In Pilate’s Court(AD)

28 (AE)Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. (AF)But they themselves did not go into the [f]Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover. 29 (AG)Pilate then went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this Man?”

30 They answered and said to him, “If He were not [g]an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him up to you.”

31 Then Pilate said to them, “You take Him and judge Him according to your law.”

Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,” 32 (AH)that the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled which He spoke, (AI)signifying by what death He would die.

33 (AJ)Then Pilate entered the [h]Praetorium again, called Jesus, and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”

34 Jesus answered him, “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?”

35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have You done?”

36 (AK)Jesus answered, (AL)“My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”

37 Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?”

Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, (AM)that I should bear (AN)witness to the truth. Everyone who (AO)is of the truth (AP)hears My voice.”

38 Pilate said to Him, “What is truth?” And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, (AQ)“I find no fault in Him at all.

Taking the Place of Barabbas(AR)

39 (AS)“But you have a custom that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Do you therefore want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”

40 (AT)Then they all cried again, saying, “Not this Man, but Barabbas!” (AU)Now Barabbas was a robber.
