John 18:19-24
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Jesus Says To Annas, Question Those Who Heard Me. He Is Led Out to Caiaphas
19 So the high priest questioned Jesus about His disciples, and about His teaching. 20 Jesus answered him, “I have spoken in public to the world. I always taught at synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together. And I spoke nothing in secret. 21 Why are you questioning Me? Question the ones having heard what I spoke to them. Look, these ones know the things which I said”. 22 And He having said these things, one of the officers standing near gave Jesus a slap[a], having said, “In this manner do you answer the high priest?” 23 Jesus answered him, “If I spoke wrongly, testify about the thing wrong. But if I spoke rightly, why do you beat Me?” 24 Then Annas sent Him forth, having been bound, to Caiaphas the high priest.
