John 18 (WEBP)

[1] 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.”
[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.

Young’s Literal Translation

John 18 (YLT)

[1] These things having said, Jesus went forth with his disciples beyond the brook of Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples,
[2] and Judas also, who delivered him up, had known the place, because many times did Jesus assemble there with his disciples.
[3] Judas, therefore, having taken the band and officers out of the chief priests and Pharisees, doth come thither with torches and lamps, and weapons;
[4] Jesus, therefore, knowing all things that are coming upon him, having gone forth, said to them, ‘Whom do ye seek?’
[5] they answered him, ‘Jesus the Nazarene;’ Jesus saith to them, ‘I am he;’-and Judas who delivered him up was standing with them;-
[6] when, therefore, he said to them-‘I am he,’ they went away backward, and fell to the ground.
[7] Again, therefore, he questioned them, ‘Whom do ye seek?’ and they said, ‘Jesus the Nazarene;’
[8] Jesus answered, ‘I said to you that I am he; if, then, me ye seek, suffer these to go away;’
[9] that the word might be fulfilled that he said-‘Those whom Thou hast given to me, I did not lose of them even one.’
[10] Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the chief priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear-and the name of the servant was Malchus-
[11] Jesus, therefore, said to Peter, ‘Put the sword into the sheath; the cup that the Father hath given to me, may I not drink it?’
[12] The band, therefore, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, took hold on Jesus, and bound him,
[13] and they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest of that year,
[14] and Caiaphas was he who gave counsel to the Jews, that it is good for one man to perish for the people.
[15] And following Jesus was Simon Peter, and the other disciple, and that disciple was known to the chief priest, and he entered with Jesus to the hall of the chief priest,
[16] and Peter was standing at the door without, therefore went forth the other disciple who was known to the chief priest, and he spake to the female keeping the door, and he brought in Peter.
[17] Then said the maid keeping the door to Peter, ‘Art thou also of the disciples of this man?’ he saith, ‘I am not;’
[18] and the servants and the officers were standing, having made a fire of coals, because it was cold, and they were warming themselves, and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.
[19] The chief priests, therefore, questioned Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching;
[20] Jesus answered him, ‘I spake freely to the world, I did always teach in a synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews do always come together; and in secret I spake nothing;
[21] why me dost thou question? question those having heard what I spake to them; lo, these have known what I said.’
[22] And he having said these things, one of the officers standing by did give Jesus a slap, saying, ‘Thus dost thou answer the chief priest?’
[23] Jesus answered him, ‘If I spake ill, testify concerning the ill; and if well, why me dost thou smite?’
[24] Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.
[25] And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself, they said then to him, ‘Art thou also of his disciples?’ he denied, and said, ‘I am not.’
[26] One of the servants of the chief priest, being kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, ‘Did not I see thee in the garden with him?’
[27] again, therefore, Peter denied, and immediately a cock crew.
[28] They led, therefore, Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium, and it was early, and they themselves did not enter into the praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the passover;
[29] Pilate, therefore, went forth unto them, and said, ‘What accusation do ye bring against this man?’
[30] they answered and said to him, ‘If he were not an evil doer, we had not delivered him to thee.’
[31] Pilate, therefore, said to them, ‘Take ye him-ye-and according to your law judge him;’ the Jews, therefore, said to him, ‘It is not lawful to us to put any one to death;’
[32] that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled which he said, signifying by what death he was about to die.
[33] Pilate, therefore, entered into the praetorium again, and called Jesus, and said to him, ‘Thou art the King of the Jews?’
[34] Jesus answered him, ‘From thyself dost thou say this? or did others say it to thee about me?’
[35] Pilate answered, ‘Am I a Jew? thy nation, and the chief priests did deliver thee up to me; what didst thou?’
[36] Jesus answered, ‘My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my officers had struggled that I might not be delivered up to Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence.’
[37] Pilate, therefore, said to him, ‘Art thou then a king?’ Jesus answered, ‘Thou dost say it; because a king I am, I for this have been born, and for this I have come to the world, that I may testify to the truth; every one who is of the truth, doth hear my voice.’
[38] Pilate saith to him, ‘What is truth?’ and this having said, again he went forth unto the Jews, and saith to them, ‘I do find no fault in him;
[39] and ye have a custom that I shall release to you one in the passover; will ye, therefore, that I shall release to you the king of the Jews?’
[40] therefore they all cried out again, saying, ‘Not this one-but Barabbas;’ and Barabbas was a robber.
