約 翰 福 音 18
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
耶稣被捕
18 耶稣做完祷告后，便与门徒出去，渡过了汲沦溪，那里有一个花园，他和门徒们走了进去。
2 此刻，叛徒犹大也知道这个地方，因为，耶稣常在这里与他的门徒相会。 3 所以，犹大带着一队士兵和大殿的警卫，他们是祭司长和法利赛人派来的，他们手拿火把、灯笼、武器来到了这里。
4 耶稣早已知道将发生的一切，他走上前去，说道∶“你们找谁？”
5 他们说∶“拿撒勒人耶稣。”
他说∶“我就是。”（叛徒犹大也站在他们中间。） 6 当耶稣说“我就是”时，他们全都倒退几步，跌倒在地上。
7 耶稣再次问道∶“你们找谁？”
他们说∶“拿撒勒人耶稣。”
8 耶稣说∶“我告诉过你们，我就是。既然你们是来找我的，那么，就让其他人走吧。” 9 这正应验了耶稣以前说的话∶“我没失去一个您赐给我的人。”
10 西门彼得抽剑便刺，砍掉了大祭司 [a]奴仆的右耳，（那人名叫马勒古）。 11 耶稣对彼得说∶“把剑收回剑鞘。父赐我的酒 [b]，我能不喝吗？”
耶稣被带到亚那面前
12 士兵、指挥官和犹太卫兵逮捕并绑起了耶稣， 13 他们首先把他带去见亚那，亚那是那年大祭司该亚法的岳父。 14 （该亚法曾向犹太人建议，一个人为众百姓而牺牲更好）。
彼得撒谎说他不认识耶稣
15 西门彼得和另一个门徒跟在耶稣的后边。大祭司与这个门徒很熟悉，所以他跟随耶稣也进了大祭司的院子， 16 但是，彼得却呆在大门外。大祭司认识的那个门徒出来，对看门的女仆说了一声，便带彼得进去了。 17 那个女仆对彼得说∶“你是不是也是这个人的门徒呢？”
彼得说∶“我才不是呢。”
18 因为天气很冷，所以，仆人和大殿卫兵们生起了一堆炭火，站在边上烤火。彼得也和他们一起，在火旁取暖。
大祭司审问耶稣
19 然后，大祭司质问耶稣有关他的门徒和他教导的事情。 20 耶稣回答他道∶“我一向在大庭广众之下对所有的人说话，我总是在犹太人聚集的会堂和大殿院里讲道，我从未私下说过任何事。 21 你为什么要问我呢？问那些听过我讲话的人，他们肯定知道我说过什么？”
22 耶稣正说着，旁边一个卫兵打了耶稣一记耳光，说道∶“你怎么胆敢如此回答大祭司呢！”
23 耶稣说∶“如果我说错了什么，你告诉大家哪里错了，如果我没说错，你为什么打我？”
24 然后，亚那叫人把耶稣绑起来，送到大祭司该亚法那里去了。
彼得再次撒谎
25 彼得正站在那里取暖，有人问他∶“你也是他的门徒吧？”
彼得却否认说∶“我不是。”
26 大祭司的另一个仆人，他是被彼得削掉耳朵那个人的亲戚，他对彼得说∶“我看见你和他一起在那个花园里，不是吗？”
27 彼得再次否认，这时，鸡叫了。
耶稣被带到彼拉多面前
28 士兵们把耶稣从该亚法院子带到了总督府去了。当时是一大早，犹太首领不想进去，免得不洁净 [c]，因为他们要吃逾越餐。 29 于是彼拉多出来见他们，说道∶“你们为什么控告此人？”
30 犹太人说∶“如果这人不是罪犯，我们就不会把他交给您了。”
31 彼拉多说∶“你们抓了他，那你们就按你们的律法判他好了。”
犹太人说∶“我们不允许判死刑。” 32 这正应验了耶稣关于他会怎么死的话。
33 彼拉多回到府里，叫来耶稣，问他道∶“你是犹太人的王吗？”
34 耶稣说∶“是你自己想这么问，还是有人告诉过你有关我的事情呢？”
35 彼拉多说∶“你认为我是犹太人吗？是你自己的同胞和祭司长把你交给我的，你做了什么错事？”
36 耶稣说∶“我的王国不属于这个世界，如果我的王国属于这个世界，我的仆人就会为我而战，我也不会落到犹太首领的手中去了。实际上，我的王国不在这里。”
37 彼拉多对他说∶“那你是国王了？”
耶稣回答∶“你说我是国王，说的很对。我为此而生，为此而来到这个世上，目的就是为真理作证。属于真理的人都会听我的话。”
38 彼拉多问∶“什么是真理？”说完，他走出去见那些犹太人，告诉他们∶“我没发现他有罪。 39 按你们的习惯，逾越节期间，我可以释放一个人，你们想让我释放犹太王吗？”
40 犹太人却叫喊道∶“不放他，放巴拉巴！”（巴拉巴曾是暴乱分子）

Modern English Version
The Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus(A)
18 When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciples across the Kidron Valley. There was a garden which He and His disciples entered.
2 Now Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with His disciples. 3 So Judas, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing everything that would happen to Him, went forward and said to them, “Whom do you seek?”
5 They answered Him, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Jesus said to them, “I am He.” And Judas, who betrayed Him, was standing with them. 6 When He said, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.
7 Again Jesus asked them, “Whom do you seek?”
They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 Jesus answered, “I told you that I am He. So then let these go their way if you are looking for Me.” 9 This was to fulfill the word which He had spoken, “I have lost none of those whom You have given Me.”
10 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 Then Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?”
Jesus Before the High Priest(B)
12 Then the detachment of soldiers and the commander and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him. 13 First they led Him to Annas, for he was the father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was the high priest that year. 14 Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
Peter’s Denial of Jesus(C)
15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. That disciple was known to the high priest and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest. 16 But Peter stood at the door outside. Then the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought Peter in.
17 Then the servant girl, being the doorkeeper, said to Peter, “Are you not also one of this Man’s disciples?”
He said, “I am not.”
18 Now the servants and officers stood there and warmed themselves, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. Peter also stood with them and warmed himself.
The High Priest Questions Jesus(D)
19 The high priest then asked Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.
20 Jesus answered him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in the synagogue and in the temple, where the Jews always meet, and I said nothing in secret. 21 Why do you ask Me? Ask those who heard Me and what I have said to them. Certainly they know what I said.”
22 When He had said this, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, “Is that how You answer the high priest?”
23 Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil, but if well, why do you strike me?” 24 Then Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
Peter Denies Jesus Again(E)
25 Meanwhile Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “Are you not also one of His disciples?”
He denied it and said, “I am not!”
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of the man whose ear Peter cut off, said, “Did I not see you in the garden with Him?” 27 Peter then denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.
Jesus Before Pilate(F)
28 Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium. It was early. Yet they themselves did not enter the Praetorium, so that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover. 29 Pilate then went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this Man?”
30 They answered him, “If He were not an evildoer, we would not have handed Him over to you.”
31 Then Pilate said, “Take Him and judge Him according to your law.”
The Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,” 32 that the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled which He spoke, signifying what death He would die.
33 Again Pilate entered the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”
34 Jesus answered him, “Are you speaking of your own accord, or did others tell you about Me?”
35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests handed You over to me. What have You done?”
36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would fight, that I would not be handed over to the Jews. But now My kingdom is not from here.”
37 Therefore Pilate said to Him, “Then are You a king?”
Jesus answered, “You say correctly that I am a king. For this reason I was born, and for this reason I came into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.”
38 Pilate said to Him, “What is truth?” When he had said this, he went out again to the Jews and said to them, “I find no guilt in Him at all.
Jesus Sentenced to Die(G)
39 “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 They all shouted again, “Not this Man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
John 18
King James Version
18 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples.
2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.
3 Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?
5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.
6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:
9 That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.
10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,
13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.
14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.
16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.
17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.
18 And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.
19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.
20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.
21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.
22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?
23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?
24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.
25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.
28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.
29 Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?
30 They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.
31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
32 That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.
33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.
39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
40 Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
