Jesus Betrayed
18 After(A) Jesus had said these things, he went out with his disciples across the Kidron Valley, where there was a garden, and he and his disciples went into it. 2 Judas,(B) who betrayed(C) him, also knew the place, because Jesus often met there with his disciples. 3 So Judas took a company of soldiers and some officials[a] from the chief priests and the Pharisees(D) and came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
4 Then Jesus, knowing everything that was about to happen to him,(E) went out and said to them, “Who is it that you’re seeking?”
5 “Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered.
“I am he,”(F) Jesus told them.
Judas, who betrayed him, was also standing with them. 6 When Jesus told them, “I am he,” they stepped back and fell to the ground.
7 Then he asked them again, “Who is it that you’re seeking?”
“Jesus of Nazareth,” they said.
8 “I told you I am he,” Jesus replied. “So if you’re looking for me, let these men go.” 9 This was to fulfill(G) the words he had said: “I have not lost one of those you have given me.”(H)
10 Then Simon(I) Peter,(J) who had a sword,(K) drew it, struck the high priest’s(L) servant, and cut off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.)
11 At that, Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword away! Am I not to drink the cup(M) the Father has given me?”
Jesus Arrested and Taken to Annas
12 Then the company of soldiers, the commander, and the Jewish officials arrested Jesus and tied him up. 13 First they led him to Annas,(N) since he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas,(O) who was high priest that year. 14 Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it would be better for one man to die for the people.(P)
Peter Denies Jesus
15 Simon Peter(Q) was following Jesus, as was another disciple. That disciple was an acquaintance of the high priest; so he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard. 16 But Peter remained standing outside by the door. So the other disciple, the one known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the girl who was the doorkeeper and brought Peter in.
17 Then the servant girl who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?”
“I am not,” he said. 18 Now the servants and the officials had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold. They were standing there warming themselves, and Peter was standing with them, warming himself.
Jesus before Annas
19 The high priest(R) questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
20 “I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus answered him. “I have always taught in the synagogue(S) and in the temple,(T) where all the Jews gather, and I haven’t spoken anything in secret. 21 Why do you question me? Question those who heard what I told them. Look, they know what I said.”
22 When he had said these things, one of the officials standing by slapped Jesus, saying, “Is this the way you answer the high priest?”
23 “If I have spoken wrongly,” Jesus answered him, “give evidence[b] about the wrong; but if rightly,(U) why do you hit me?” 24 Then(V) Annas(W) sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
Peter Denies Jesus Twice More
25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, “You aren’t one of his disciples too, are you?”
He denied it and said, “I am not.”
26 One of the high priest’s servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “Didn’t I see you with him in the garden?” 27 Peter denied it again. Immediately a rooster crowed.(X)
Jesus before Pilate
28 Then(Y) they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the governor’s headquarters.(Z) It was early morning. They did not enter the headquarters themselves; otherwise they would be defiled and unable to eat the Passover.
29 So Pilate(AA) came out to them and said, “What charge(AB) do you bring against this man?”
30 They answered him, “If this man weren’t a criminal,[c] we wouldn’t have handed him over to you.”
31 Pilate told them, “You take him and judge him according to your law.”
“It’s not legal for us to put anyone to death,” the Jews declared. 32 They said this so that Jesus’s words might be fulfilled indicating what kind of death he was going to die.(AC)
33 Then Pilate went back into the headquarters, summoned Jesus, and said to him, “Are you the king of the Jews?” (AD)
34 Jesus answered, “Are you asking this on your own, or have others told you about me?”
35 “I’m not a Jew, am I?” Pilate replied. “Your own nation and the chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?”
36 “My kingdom(AE) is not of this world,” said Jesus. “If my kingdom were of this world,(AF) my servants(AG) would fight, so that I wouldn’t be handed over to the Jews. But as it is,[d] my kingdom is not from here.”(AH)
37 “You are a king then?” Pilate asked.
“You say that I’m a king,” Jesus replied. “I was born for this, and I have come into the world(AI) for this: to testify(AJ) to the truth.(AK) Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.”
38 “What is truth?” said Pilate.
Jesus or Barabbas
After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again and told them, “I find no grounds(AL) for charging him. 39 You(AM) have a custom that I release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So, do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?”
40 They shouted back, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” (AN) Now Barabbas was a revolutionary.[e](AO)

18 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where there was a garden, into 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 Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons. 4 Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went out and said to them, “Who are you looking for?”
5 They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Jesus said to them, “I am he.”
Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them. 6 When therefore he said to them, “I am he,” they went backward and fell to the ground.
7 Again therefore he asked them, “Who are you looking for?”
They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,” 9 that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, “Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none.”(A)
10 Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus. 11 Jesus therefore said to Peter, “Put the sword into its sheath. The cup which the Father has given me, shall I not surely drink it?”
12 So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and bound him, 13 and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. 14 Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should perish for the people.
15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, as did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest; 16 but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought in Peter. 17 Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, “Are you also one of this man’s disciples?”
He said, “I am not.”
18 Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. They were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.
19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
20 Jesus answered him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews always meet. I said nothing in secret. 21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them. Behold, they know the things which I said.”
22 When he had said this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying, “Do you answer the high priest like that?”
23 Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?”
24 Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, “You aren’t also one of his disciples, are you?”
He denied it and said, “I am not.”
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “Didn’t I see you in the garden with him?”
27 Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
28 They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves didn’t enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover. 29 Pilate therefore went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?”
30 They answered him, “If this man weren’t an evildoer, we wouldn’t have delivered him up to you.”
31 Pilate therefore said to them, “Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law.”
Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is illegal for us to put anyone to death,” 32 that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
33 Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”
34 Jesus answered him, “Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?”
35 Pilate answered, “I’m not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you 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 wouldn’t 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 that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to 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 basis for a charge against him. 39 But you have a custom that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore, do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
40 Then they all shouted again, saying, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.

Ciise Waa La Qabtay(A)
18 Ciise markuu waxyaalahaas yidhi wuu la baxay xertiisii oo kala gudbay Tog Qidroon, meeshay ku tiil beer uu galay, isaga iyo xertiisiiba. 2 Yuudasna, kii gacangeliyey, meeshaas wuu garanayay, waayo, Ciise marar badan ayuu meeshaas xertiisii la tegi jiray. 3 Haddaba Yuudas isagoo askar iyo saraakiil ka wada wadaaddadii sare iyo Farrisiintii ayuu meeshaas la yimid laambado iyo siraaddo iyo hub. 4 Sidaa daraaddeed Ciise isagoo og waxa ku dhici doona oo dhan ayuu baxay oo ku yidhi iyaga, Kumaad doondoonaysaan? 5 Waxay ugu jawaabeen, Ciisihii reer Naasared. Markaasaa Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi, Isagii baan ahay. Waxaana iyaga la taagnaa Yuudas kii gacangeliyey. 6 Sidaa daraaddeed Ciise markuu ku yidhi, Isagii baan ahay, dib bay u socdeen, oo dhulkay ku dhaceen. 7 Mar kale haddaba ayuu weyddiiyey, oo ku yidhi, Kumaad doondoonaysaan? Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Ciisihii reer Naasared. 8 Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Waan idiin sheegay inaan isagii ahay. Haddaba haddaad i doonaysaan, kuwan iska daaya, ha tageene. 9 Wuxuu saas u yidhi inuu dhammaado hadalkii uu ku hadlay oo ahaa, Kuwii aad i siisay, midkoodna ma lumin. 10 Simoon Butros haddaba, isagoo seef haysta, ayuu soo bixiyey, oo wuxuu ku dhuftay wadaadka sare addoonkiisii, oo ka gooyay dhegta midigta. Addoonkii magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Malkos. 11 Sidaa daraaddeed Ciise wuxuu Butros ku yidhi, Seefta galkeeda ku celi. Koobka Aabbuhu i siiyey miyaanan cabbayn?
12 Haddaba askartii iyo ninkii u sarreeyey iyo saraakiishii Yuhuudda ayaa Ciise qabtay, markaasay xidhxidheen, 13 oo markii hore waxay u geeyeen Annas, waayo, wuxuu ahaa soddoggii Kayafas oo ahaa wadaadkii sare sannaddaas. 14 Kayafas wuxuu ahaa kii kula taliyey Yuhuudda inay u roon tahay in nin keliyahu dadka u dhinto.
Butros Baa Dafiray Ciise. Wadaadkii Sarena Wax Buu Ciise Weyddiiyey(B)
15 Waxaa Ciise daba socday Simoon Butros iyo mid kale oo xer ah. Ninkaas xerta ahaa wadaadka sare waa garanayay, wuuna la galay Ciise barxadda wadaadkii sare. 16 Butros se wuxuu taagnaa albaabka agtiisa oo dibadda ah. Sidaa daraaddeed kii kale oo xerta ahaa oo wadaadka sare garanayay ayaa dibadda u soo baxay oo la hadlay tii albaabka ilaalinaysay, oo Butros ayuu soo geliyey. 17 Gabadhii albaabka ilaalinaysay waxay Butros ku tidhi, Adiguna ma waxaad tahay mid ka mid ah ninkan xertiisa? Wuxuu ku yidhi, Ma ihi. 18 Markaasaa waxaa taagnaayeen addoommadii iyo saraakiishii oo dab dhuxul ah sameeyey, maxaa yeelay, dhaxan bay ahayd, wayna kulaalayeen. Butrosna wuu la joogay, isagoo taagan oo dabka kulaalaya.
19 Haddaba wadaadkii sare wuxuu Ciise wax ka weyddiiyey xertiisii iyo waxbariddiisii. 20 Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Bayaan baan dunida ula hadlay, oo weligay wax baan ku bari jiray sunagogyada iyo macbudka, meesha ay Yuhuudda oo dhammi isugu timaado, oo waxba si qarsoon uma odhan jirin. 21 Maxaad ii weyddiinaysaa? Weyddii kuwa maqlay waxaan kula hadlay. Bal eeg, kuwaasaa og waxaan idhi e. 22 Markuu sidaas yidhi saraakiishii midkood oo ag taagnaa ayaa Ciise dharbaaxay isagoo leh, Ma saasaad ugu jawaabaysaa wadaadka sare? 23 Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Haddii aan si xun u hadlay, xumaanta ka marag fur, haddaan si wanaagsan u hadlayse, maxaad ii dharbaaxaysaa? 24 Annas haddaba wuxuu isagoo xidhxidhan u diray Kayafas oo ahaa wadaadka sare.
25 Simoon Butros ayaa taagnaa oo dabka kulaalayay. Haddaba waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Adiguna ma waxaad tahay xertiisii midkood? Markaasuu inkiray oo yidhi, Ma ihi. 26 Addoommadii wadaadka sare midkood oo qaraabo ay ahaayeen kii Butros uu dhegta ka gooyay wuxuu yidhi, Miyaanan beerta kugula arkin isaga? 27 Haddaba Butros mar kale ayuu inkiray, oo markiiba diiqii baa ciyey.
Ciise Wuxuu Hor Taagnaa Bilaatos Oo Ahaa Taliyihii Reer Rooma(C)
28 Haddaba Ciise ayay ka kaxeeyeen Kayafas ilaa guriga taliyaha. Waxay ahayd aroortii hore, oo iyagu ma ay gelin guriga taliyaha si aanay u nijaasoobin, laakiinse inay cashadii Iidda Kormaridda wax ka cunaan. 29 Bilaatos haddaba ayaa u soo baxay iyagii oo ku yidhi, Maxaad ku ashtakaynaysaan ninkan? 30 Way u jawaabeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Ninkanu haddaanu ahayn xumaanfale, kuuma aannu soo gacangelinneen. 31 Haddaba Bilaatos wuxuu ku yidhi, Idinku qaata, oo sharcigiinna ku xukuma. Yuhuuddu waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Xalaal nooma aha inaannu nin dillo, 32 inuu ahaado hadalkii Ciise ku hadlay kolkuu sheegay siduu u dhiman doono.
33 Bilaatos haddaba guriga taliyaha ayuu mar kale galay oo Ciise u yeedhay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Adigu ma waxaad tahay Boqorka Yuhuudda? 34 Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Ma adaa iska odhanaya waxaas, mise kuwa kalaa iiga kaa sheegay? 35 Bilaatos ayaa ugu jawaabay, Ma Yuhuudi baan ahay? Quruuntaadii iyo wadaaddadii sare ayaa ii soo kaa gacangeliyeye. Maxaad samaysay? 36 Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Boqortooyadaydu tan dunidan ma aha. Haddii boqortooyadaydu tan dunidan tahay, midiidinyadaydu waa ii diriri lahaayeen inaan Yuhuudda la ii gacangelin. Imminkase boqortooyadaydu tan halkan ma aha. 37 Sidaa daraaddeed Bilaatos ayaa ku yidhi, Haddaba ma boqor baad tahay? Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Waad tidhaahdaa inaan boqor ahay. Taas ayaan u dhashay, oo taas ayaan dunida u imid, inaan marag u furo runta. Mid kasta oo kan runta ah wuu maqlaa codkayga. 38 Bilaatos ayaa ku yidhi, Waa maxay runtu?
Oo markuu sidaa ku yidhi, mar kale ayuu Yuhuudda u baxay oo ku yidhi, Eedna isagii kuma aan helin. 39 Laakiin waxaad leedihiin caado inaan mid idiin sii daayo Iidda Kormaridda. Haddaba ma doonaysaan inaan idiin sii daayo Boqorkii Yuhuudda? 40 Kolkaasay dhammaan mar kale qayliyeen iyagoo leh, Ninkan ma aha, laakiin Baraabbas. Baraabbas wuxuu ahaa waxdhace.

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)
