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)

Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
18 Nang masalita ni Jesus ang mga salitang ito, siya'y umalis na kasama ng kaniyang mga alagad na nagsitawid ng batis ng Cedron, na doo'y may isang halamanan, na pinasok niya at ng kaniyang mga alagad.
2 Si Judas nga rin naman, na sa kaniya'y nagkanulo, ay nalalaman ang dako: sapagka't madalas na si Jesus ay nakikipagkatipon sa kaniyang mga alagad doon.
3 Si Judas nga, pagkatanggap ng pulutong ng mga kawal, at mga punong kawal na mula sa mga pangulong saserdote at mga Fariseo, ay nagsiparoon na may mga ilawan at mga sulo at mga sandata.
4 Si Jesus nga, na nakatataho ng lahat ng mga bagay na sasapit sa kaniya, ay lumabas, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Sino ang inyong hinahanap?
5 Sinagot niya sila, Si Jesus na taga Nazaret. Sinabi sa kanila ni Jesus, Ako nga. At si Judas din naman, na sa kaniya'y nagkanulo, ay nakatayong kasama nila.
6 Pagkasabi nga niya sa kanila, Ako nga, ay nagsiurong sila, at nangalugmok sa lupa.
7 Muli ngang sila'y tinanong niya, Sino ang inyong hinahanap? At sinabi nila, Si Jesus na taga Nazaret.
8 Sumagot si Jesus, Sinabi ko sa inyo na ako nga; kung ako nga ang inyong hinahanap, ay pabayaan ninyo ang mga ito na magsiyaon sa kanilang lakad.
9 Upang matupad ang salitang sinalita niya, Sa mga ibinigay mo sa akin ay hindi ko iniwala kahit isa.
10 Si Simon Pedro nga na may tabak ay nagbunot nito, at sinugatan ang alipin ng dakilang saserdote, at tinagpas ang kaniyang kanang tainga. Ang pangalan ng aliping yaon ay Malco.
11 Sinabi nga ni Jesus kay Pedro, Isalong mo ang iyong tabak: ang sarong sa akin ay ibinigay ng Ama, ay hindi ko baga iinuman?
12 Kaya dinakip si Jesus ng pulutong at ng pangulong kapitan, at ng mga punong kawal ng mga Judio, at siya'y ginapos.
13 At siya'y dinala muna kay Anas; sapagka't siya'y biyenan ni Caifas, na dakilang saserdote nang taong yaon.
14 Si Caifas nga na siyang nagpayo sa mga Judio, na dapat na ang isang tao'y mamatay dahil sa bayan.
15 At sumunod si Simon Pedro kay Jesus, at gayon din ang isa pang alagad. Ang alagad ngang yaon ay kilala ng dakilang saserdote, at pumasok na kasama ni Jesus sa looban ng dakilang saserdote;
16 Nguni't si Pedro ay nakatayo sa pintuan sa labas. Kaya't ang isang alagad, na kilala ng dakilang saserdote ay lumabas at kinausap ang babaing tanod-pinto, at ipinasok si Pedro.
17 Sinabi nga kay Pedro ng dalagang tanod-pinto, Pati baga ikaw ay isa sa mga alagad ng taong ito? Sinabi niya, Ako'y hindi.
18 Nangakatayo nga doon ang mga alipin at ang mga punong kawal, na nangagpapaningas ng sigang uling; sapagka't maginaw; at sila'y nangagpapainit: at si Pedro rin naman ay kasama nila, na nakatayo at nagpapainit.
19 Tinanong nga ng dakilang saserdote si Jesus tungkol sa kaniyang mga alagad, at sa kaniyang pagtuturo.
20 Sinagot siya ni Jesus, Ako'y hayag na nagsalita sa sanglibutan; ako'y laging nagtuturo sa mga sinagoga, at sa templo, na siyang pinagkakatipunan ng lahat ng mga Judio; at wala akong sinalita sa lihim.
21 Bakit ako'y iyong tinatanong? tanungin mo silang nangakarinig sa akin, kung anong sinalita ko sa kanila: narito, ang mga ito ang nangakakaalam ng mga bagay na sinabi ko.
22 At nang kaniyang masabi ito, ay sinampal si Jesus ng isa sa mga punong kawal na nakatayo roon, na nagsasabi, Ganyan ang pagsagot mo sa dakilang saserdote?
23 Sinagot siya ni Jesus, Kung ako'y nagsalita ng masama, patotohanan mo ang kasamaan; datapuwa't kung mabuti, bakit mo ako sinasampal?
24 Ipinadala nga siyang gapos ni Anas kay Caifas na dakilang saserdote.
25 Nakatayo nga si Pedro na nagpapainit. Sinabi nga nila sa kaniya, Ikaw baga ay isa rin naman sa kaniyang mga alagad? Siya'y kumaila, at sinabi, Ako'y hindi.
26 Ang isa sa mga alipin ng dakilang saserdote, na kamaganak niyaong tinagpas ni Pedro ang tainga, ay nagsabi, Hindi baga ikaw ay nakita kong kasama niya sa halamanan?
27 Muli ngang kumaila si Pedro: at pagdaka'y tumilaok ang manok.
28 Dinala nga nila si Jesus mula kay Caifas hanggang sa Pretorio: at niyao'y maaga pa; at sila'y hindi nagsipasok sa Pretorio, upang huwag silang madungisan, upang sila'y mangyaring makakain ng kordero ng paskua.
29 Nilabas nga sila ni Pilato, at sinabi, Anong sakdal ang dala ninyo laban sa taong ito?
30 Sila'y nagsisagot at sinabi sa kaniya, Kung ang taong ito'y hindi manggagawa ng masama, ay hindi sana namin dinala sa iyo.
31 Sa kanila nga'y sinabi ni Pilato, Kunin ninyo siya, at siya'y inyong hatulan ayon sa inyong kautusan. Ang mga Judio'y nangagsabi sa kaniya, Sa amin ay hindi naaayon sa kautusan na magpapatay ng sinomang tao:
32 Upang matupad ang salitang sinalita ni Jesus, na ipinaalam kung sa anong paraan ng kamatayan siya mamamatay.
33 Si Pilato nga'y muling pumasok sa Pretorio, at tinawag si Jesus, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Ikaw baga ang Hari ng mga Judio?
34 Sumagot si Jesus, Sinasabi mo baga ito sa iyong sarili, o sinabi sa iyo ng mga iba tungkol sa akin?
35 Si Pilato ay sumagot, Ako baga'y Judio? Ang iyong sariling bansa at ang mga pangulong saserdote ang sa iyo'y nagdala sa akin: anong ginawa mo?
36 Sumagot si Jesus, Ang kaharian ko ay hindi sa sanglibutang ito: kung ang kaharian ko ay sa sanglibutang ito, ang aking mga alipin nga ay makikipagbaka, upang ako'y huwag maibigay sa mga Judio: nguni't ngayo'y ang aking kaharian ay hindi rito.
37 Sinabi nga sa kaniya ni Pilato, Ikaw nga baga'y hari? Sumagot si Jesus, Ikaw ang nagsasabing ako'y hari. Ako'y ipinanganak dahil dito, dahil dito ako naparito sa sanglibutan, upang bigyang patotoo ang katotohanan. Ang bawa't isang ayon sa katotohanan ay nakikinig ng aking tinig.
38 Sinabi sa kaniya ni Pilato, Ano ang katotohanan? At nang masabi niya ito ay lumabas siyang muli sa mga Judio, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Wala akong masumpungang anomang kasalanan sa kaniya.
39 Nguni't kayo'y may ugali, na pawalan sa inyo ang isa sa paskua: ibig nga baga ninyong sa inyo'y pawalan ko ang Hari ng mga Judio?
40 Sila nga'y nagsigawang muli, na nangagsasabi, Huwag ang taong ito, kundi si Barrabas. Si Barrabas nga'y isang tulisan.
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]
