Ioan 18
Nouă Traducere În Limba Română
Arestarea lui Isus
18 După ce a spus aceste lucruri, Isus a plecat împreună cu ucenicii Lui dincolo de uedul[a] Chidron, unde era o grădină, în care a intrat El şi ucenicii Lui. 2 Iuda, cel care L-a trădat, cunoştea şi el acel loc, pentru că de multe ori Isus se strânsese acolo cu ucenicii Lui. 3 Prin urmare, Iuda a luat o cohortă[b] şi nişte gărzi, trimise de conducătorii preoţilor şi de farisei, şi au venit acolo cu lămpi, făclii şi arme. 4 Isus, ştiind tot ce urmează să I se întâmple, a ieşit şi i-a întrebat:
– Pe Cine căutaţi?
5 Ei I-au răspuns:
– Pe Isus din Nazaret!
El le-a zis:
– Eu sunt!
Iuda, cel care L-a trădat, stătea şi el împreună cu ei. 6 Când Isus le-a zis: „Eu sunt!“, ei s-au dat înapoi şi au căzut la pământ. 7 El i-a întrebat din nou:
– Pe Cine căutaţi?
Ei I-au zis:
– Pe Isus din Nazaret!
8 Isus a răspuns:
– V-am spus că Eu sunt. Deci, dacă pe Mine Mă căutaţi, lăsaţi-i pe aceştia să se ducă!
9 Aceasta s-a întâmplat ca să se împlinească cuvântul pe care-l spusese: „N-am pierdut pe nici unul din cei pe care Mi i-ai dat.“[c] 10 Atunci Simon Petru, care avea o sabie, a scos-o şi l-a lovit pe sclavul marelui preot, tăindu-i urechea dreaptă. Numele acelui sclav era Malchus. 11 Însă Isus i-a zis lui Petru: „Bagă-ţi sabia în teacă! Nu voi bea oare paharul[d] pe care Mi l-a dat Tatăl?“
Isus este dus la Ana; prima lepădare a lui Petru
12 Atunci cohorta, comandantul ei şi gărzile iudeilor L-au prins pe Isus, L-au legat 13 şi L-au dus mai întâi la Ana[e]. Căci acesta era socrul lui Caiafa[f], care era mare preot în anul acela. 14 Iar Caiafa era cel care-i sfătuise pe iudei că este mai de folos să moară un singur om pentru popor.
15 Simon Petru împreună cu un alt ucenic L-au urmat pe Isus. Acel ucenic era cunoscut marelui preot şi a intrat cu Isus în curtea marelui preot. 16 Petru însă stătea afară, la poartă. Celălalt ucenic, care era cunoscut marelui preot, a ieşit afară, a vorbit cu portăreasa şi l-a adus pe Petru înăuntru. 17 Atunci slujnica, portăreasa, i-a zis lui Petru:
– Nu cumva eşti şi tu dintre ucenicii Acestui Om?
El i-a răspuns:
– Nu sunt.
18 Sclavii şi gărzile făcuseră un foc, pentru că era frig, şi se încălzeau. Petru stătea şi el cu ei şi se încălzea.
19 Marele preot L-a întrebat pe Isus despre ucenicii Lui şi despre învăţătura Lui. 20 Isus i-a răspuns: „Eu am vorbit lumii deschis; întotdeauna am dat învăţătură în sinagogă şi în Templu, unde se adună toţi iudeii, şi n-am spus nimic în ascuns. 21 De ce Mă întrebi pe Mine? Întreabă-i pe cei care au auzit ce le-am vorbit! Iată că ei ştiu ce am vorbit!“
22 După ce a spus acestea, una dintre gărzile care stăteau acolo L-a lovit cu palma, spunându-i:
– Aşa-i răspunzi marelui preot?!
23 Isus i-a răspuns:
– Dacă am vorbit rău, depune mărturie cu privire la ceea ce am spus rău, dar dacă am vorbit bine, de ce Mă baţi?
24 Ana L-a trimis legat la Caiafa, marele preot.
A doua şi a treia lepădare a lui Petru
25 Simon Petru stătea acolo şi se încălzea. I-au zis:
– Nu cumva eşti şi tu dintre ucenicii Lui?
Dar el s-a lepădat şi a zis:
– Nu sunt.
26 Unul dintre sclavii marelui preot, rudă cu cel căruia Petru îi tăiase urechea, a zis:
– Nu te-am văzut eu în grădină cu El?!
27 Petru s-a lepădat din nou; şi imediat a cântat cocoşul[g].
Isus înaintea lui Pilat
28 Atunci L-au dus pe Isus de la Caiafa la pretoriu[h]. Era în zori. Ei n-au intrat în pretoriu, ca să nu se pângărească şi să poată mânca Paştele. 29 Aşadar, Pilat[i] a ieşit afară la ei şi le-a zis:
– Ce acuzaţie aduceţi împotriva Acestui Om?
30 Ei i-au răspuns:
– Dacă n-ar fi fost un răufăcător, nu L-am fi dat pe mâna ta!
31 Atunci Pilat le-a zis:
– Luaţi-L voi şi judecaţi-L potrivit cu Legea voastră!
Iudeii i-au răspuns:
– Nouă nu ne este permis să omorâm pe nimeni!
32 Aceasta s-a întâmplat ca să se împlinească cele spuse de Isus, când a arătat prin ce fel de moarte urma să moară.
33 Atunci Pilat a intrat din nou în pretoriu, L-a chemat pe Isus şi L-a întrebat:
– Eşti Tu Împăratul iudeilor?
34 Isus i-a răspuns:
– De la tine spui lucrul acesta sau ţi l-au spus alţii despre Mine?
35 Pilat I-a răspuns:
– Sunt eu cumva iudeu?! Neamul Tău şi conducătorii preoţilor Te-au dat pe mâna mea! Ce-ai făcut?
36 Isus i-a zis:
– Împărăţia Mea nu este din lumea aceasta. Dacă Împărăţia Mea ar fi din lumea aceasta, slujitorii Mei s-ar lupta ca să nu fiu dat pe mâna iudeilor; dar Împărăţia Mea nu este de aici.
37 Pilat L-a întrebat:
– Deci un Împărat tot eşti.
Isus i-a răspuns:
– Este aşa cum ai spus: sunt Împărat! Eu pentru aceasta m-am născut şi pentru aceasta am venit în lume, ca să depun mărturie despre adevăr. Oricine este din adevăr ascultă de glasul Meu.
38 Pilat L-a întrebat:
– Ce este adevărul?
Şi, spunând aceasta, a ieşit din nou la iudei şi le-a zis:
– Eu nu găsesc nici o vină în El! 39 Dar este în obiceiul vostru ca de Paşte să vă eliberez un deţinut; vreţi deci să vi-L eliberez pe „Împăratul iudeilor“?
40 Ei au strigat din nou:
– Nu pe El, ci pe Baraba[j]!
Baraba era un răsculat[k].

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.
John 18
New International Version
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)
2 Now Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with his disciples.(E) 3 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.
4 Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him,(H) went out and asked them, “Who is it you want?”(I)
5 “Jesus of Nazareth,”(J) they replied.
“I am he,” Jesus said. (And Judas the traitor was standing there with them.) 6 When Jesus said, “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground.
7 Again he asked them, “Who is it you want?”(K)
“Jesus of Nazareth,” they said.
8 Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If you are looking for me, then let these men go.” 9 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)
