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. 2 And Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place; (D)for Jesus often met there with His disciples. 3 (E)Then Judas, having received a detachment of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons. 4 Jesus therefore, (F)knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, “Whom are you seeking?”
5 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. 6 Now when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.
7 Then He asked them again, “Whom are you seeking?”
And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 Jesus answered, “I have told you that I am He. Therefore, if you seek Me, let these go their way,” 9 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.

18 Nang masalita ni Jesus ang mga salitang ito, (A)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 (B)Jesus ay nakikipagkatipon sa kaniyang mga alagad doon.
3 Si Judas nga, (C)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, (D)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: (E)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 (F)siya'y dinala muna (G)kay Anas; sapagka't siya'y biyenan ni (H)Caifas, na dakilang saserdote nang taong yaon.
14 Si Caifas nga (I)na siyang nagpayo sa mga Judio, na dapat na ang isang tao'y mamatay dahil sa bayan.
15 At sumunod si (J)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 (K)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 (L)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 (M)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, (N)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. (O)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 (P)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 (Q)pagdaka'y tumilaok ang manok.
28 Dinala nga nila si Jesus mula kay Caifas hanggang sa Pretorio: at niyao'y maaga pa; (R)at sila'y hindi nagsipasok sa Pretorio, upang huwag silang madungisan, (S)upang sila'y mangyaring makakain ng kordero ng paskua.
29 (T)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 (U)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, (V)Ang kaharian ko ay hindi (W)sa sanglibutang ito: kung ang kaharian ko ay sa sanglibutang ito, ang aking mga alipin nga ay makikipagbaka, upang ako'y huwag (X)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, (Y)Ikaw ang nagsasabing ako'y hari. (Z)Ako'y ipinanganak dahil dito, dahil dito ako naparito sa (AA)sanglibutan, upang bigyang patotoo ang katotohanan. (AB)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 (AC)lumabas siyang muli sa mga Judio, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Wala akong masumpungang anomang kasalanan sa kaniya.
39 Nguni't kayo'y (AD)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.

Arrest in the garden
18 After he said these things, Jesus went out with his disciples and crossed over to the other side of the Kidron Valley. He and his disciples entered a garden there. 2 Judas, his betrayer, also knew the place because Jesus often gathered there with his disciples. 3 Judas brought a company of soldiers[a] and some guards from the chief priests and Pharisees. They came there carrying lanterns, torches, and weapons. 4 Jesus knew everything that was to happen to him, so he went out and asked, “Who are you looking for?”
5 They answered, “Jesus the Nazarene.”
He said to them, “I Am.”[b] (Judas, his betrayer, was standing with them.) 6 When he said, “I Am,” they shrank back and fell to the ground. 7 He asked them again, “Who are you looking for?”
They said, “Jesus the Nazarene.”
8 Jesus answered, “I told you, ‘I Am.’[c] If you are looking for me, then let these people go.” 9 This was so that the word he had spoken might be fulfilled: “I didn’t lose anyone of those whom you gave me.”
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 told Peter, “Put your sword away! Am I not to drink the cup the Father has given me?” 12 Then the company of soldiers, the commander, and the guards from the Jewish leaders took Jesus into custody. They bound him 13 and led him first to Annas. He was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, the high priest that year. (14 Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jewish leaders that it was better for one person to die for the people.)
Peter denies Jesus
15 Simon Peter and another disciple followed Jesus. Because this other disciple was known to the high priest, he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard. 16 However, Peter stood outside near the gate. Then the other disciple (the one known to the high priest) came out and spoke to the woman stationed at the gate, and she brought Peter in. 17 The servant woman stationed at the gate asked Peter, “Aren’t you one of this man’s disciples?”
“I’m not,” he replied. 18 The servants and the guards had made a fire because it was cold. They were standing around it, warming themselves. Peter joined them there, standing by the fire and warming himself.
Jesus testifies
19 Meanwhile, the chief priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. 20 Jesus answered, “I’ve spoken openly to the world. I’ve always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews gather. I’ve said nothing in private. 21 Why ask me? Ask those who heard what I told them. They know what I said.”
22 After Jesus spoke, one of the guards standing there slapped Jesus in the face. “Is that how you would answer the high priest?” he asked.
23 Jesus replied, “If I speak wrongly, testify about what was wrong. But if I speak correctly, why do you strike me?” 24 Then Annas sent him, bound, to Caiaphas the high priest.
Peter denies Jesus again
25 Meanwhile, Simon Peter was still standing with the guards, warming himself. They asked, “Aren’t you one of his disciples?”
Peter denied it, saying, “I’m not.”
26 A servant of the high priest, a relative of the one whose ear Peter had cut off, said to him, “Didn’t I see you in the garden with him?” 27 Peter denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.
Trial before Pilate
28 The Jewish leaders led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Roman governor’s palace.[d] It was early in the morning. So that they could eat the Passover, the Jewish leaders wouldn’t enter the palace; entering the palace would have made them ritually impure.
29 So Pilate went out to them and asked, “What charge do you bring against this man?”
30 They answered, “If he had done nothing wrong, we wouldn’t have handed him over to you.”
31 Pilate responded, “Take him yourselves and judge him according to your Law.”
The Jewish leaders replied, “The Law doesn’t allow us to kill anyone.” (32 This was so that Jesus’ word might be fulfilled when he indicated how he was going to die.)
Pilate questions Jesus
33 Pilate went back into the palace. He summoned Jesus and asked, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
34 Jesus answered, “Do you say this on your own or have others spoken to you about me?”
35 Pilate responded, “I’m not a Jew, am I? Your nation and its chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?”
36 Jesus replied, “My kingdom doesn’t originate from this world. If it did, my guards would fight so that I wouldn’t have been arrested by the Jewish leaders. My kingdom isn’t from here.”
37 “So you are a king?” Pilate said.
Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. I was born and came into the world for this reason: to testify to the truth. Whoever accepts the truth listens to my voice.”
38 “What is truth?” Pilate asked.
Release of Barabbas
After Pilate said this, he returned to the Jewish leaders and said, “I find no grounds for any charge against him. 39 You have a custom that I release one prisoner for you at Passover. Do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?”
40 They shouted, “Not this man! Give us Barabbas!” (Barabbas was an outlaw.)

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)
