When Jesus had spoken
these words
, he went forth
with
his
disciples
over
the brook
Cedron
, where
was
a garden
, into
the which
he
entered
, and
his
disciples
.
And Judas
also
, which
betrayed
him
, knew
the place
: for
Jesus
ofttimes
resorted
thither
with
his
disciples
.
Judas then
, having received
a band
of men and
officers
from
the chief priests
and
Pharisees
, cometh
thither
with
lanterns
and
torches
and
weapons
.
Jesus therefore
, knowing
all things
that should come
upon
him
, went forth
, and said
unto them
, Whom
seek ye
?
They answered him
, Jesus
of Nazareth
. Jesus
saith
unto them
, I
am
he . And
Judas
also
, which
betrayed
him
, stood
with
them
.
As soon then
as he had said
unto them
,
I
am
he , they went
backward
, and
fell
to the ground
.
Then asked he
them
again
, Whom
seek ye
? And
they said
, Jesus
of Nazareth
.
Jesus answered
, I have told
you
that
I
am
he : if
therefore
ye seek
me
, let
these
go their way
:
That the saying
might be fulfilled
, which
he spake
,
Of
them
which
thou gavest
me
have I
lost
none
.
Then Simon
Peter
having
a sword
drew
it
, and
smote
the high priest's
servant
, and
cut off
his
right
ear
.
The servant's
name
was
Malchus
.
Then said
Jesus
unto Peter
, Put up
thy
sword
into
the sheath
: the cup
which
my Father
hath given
me
, shall I
not
drink
it
?
Then the band
and
the captain
and
officers
of the Jews
took
Jesus
, and
bound
him
,
And led
him
away
to
Annas
first
; for
he was
father in law
to Caiaphas
, which
was
the high priest
that same
year
.
Now Caiaphas
was he
, which
gave counsel
to the Jews
, that
it was expedient
that one
man
should die
for
the people
.
And Simon
Peter
followed
Jesus
, and
so did another
disciple
:
that
disciple
was
known
unto the high priest
, and
went in with
Jesus
into
the palace
of the high priest
.
But Peter
stood
at
the door
without
. Then
went out
that other
disciple
, which
was
known
unto the high priest
, and
spake
unto her that kept the door
, and
brought in
Peter
.
Then saith
the damsel
that kept the door
unto Peter
, Art
not
thou
also
one of
this
man's
disciples
? He
saith
, I am
not
.
And the servants
and
officers
stood there
, who had made
a fire of coals
; for
it was
cold
: and
they warmed themselves
: and
Peter
stood
with
them
, and
warmed himself
.
The high priest then
asked
Jesus
of
his
disciples
, and
of
his
doctrine
.
Jesus answered
him
, I
spake
openly
to the world
; I
ever
taught
in
the synagogue
, and
in
the temple
, whither
the Jews
always
resort
; and
in
secret
have I said
nothing
.
Why askest thou
me
? ask
them which heard me
, what
I have said
unto them
: behold
, they
know
what
I
said
.
And when he
had
thus
spoken
, one
of the officers
which stood by
struck
Jesus
with the palm of his hand
, saying
, Answerest thou
the high priest
so
?
Jesus answered
him
, If
I have spoken
evil
, bear witness
of
the evil
: but
if
well
, why
smitest
thou me
?
Now Annas had sent
him
bound
unto
Caiaphas
the high priest
.
And Simon
Peter
stood
and
warmed himself
. They said
therefore
unto him
, Art
not
thou
also
one of
his
disciples
? He
denied
it , and
said
, I am
not
.
One of
the servants
of the high priest
, being
his kinsman
whose
ear
Peter
cut off
, saith
, Did
not
I
see
thee
in
the garden
with
him
?
Peter then
denied
again
: and
immediately
the cock
crew
.
Then led they
Jesus
from
Caiaphas
unto
the hall of judgment
: and
it was
early
; and
they themselves
went
not
into
the judgment hall
, lest
they should be defiled
; but
that
they might eat
the passover
.
Pilate then
went out
unto
them
, and
said
, What
accusation
bring ye
against
this
man
?
They answered and
said
unto him
, If
he
were
not
a malefactor
, we would
not
have delivered
him
up
unto thee
.
Then said
Pilate
unto them
, Take
ye
him
, and
judge
him
according
to your
law
. The Jews
therefore
said
unto him
, It is
not
lawful
for us
to put
any man
to death
:
That the saying
of Jesus
might be fulfilled
, which
he spake
, signifying
what
death
he should
die
.
Then Pilate
entered
into
the judgment hall
again
, and
called
Jesus
, and
said
unto him
, Art
thou
the King
of the Jews
?
Jesus answered
him
, Sayest
thou
this thing
of
thyself
, or
did others
tell it
thee
of
me
?
Pilate answered
,
Am
I
a Jew
? Thine own
nation
and
the chief priests
have delivered
thee
unto me
: what
hast thou done
?
Jesus answered
, My
kingdom
is
not
of
this
world
: if
my
kingdom
were
of
this
world
, then would
my
servants
fight
, that
I should
not
be delivered
to the Jews
: but
now
is
my
kingdom
not
from hence
.
Pilate therefore
said
unto him
, Art
thou
a king
then
? Jesus
answered
, Thou
sayest
that
I
am
a king
. To
this
end was
I
born
, and
for
this
cause came I
into
the world
, that
I should bear witness
unto the truth
. Every one
that is
of
the truth
heareth
my
voice
.
Pilate saith
unto him
, What
is
truth
? And
when he had said
this
, he went out
again
unto
the Jews
, and
saith
unto them
, I
find
in
him
no
fault
at all .
But ye
have
a custom
, that
I should release
unto you
one
at
the passover
: will ye
therefore
that I release
unto you
the King
of the Jews
?
Then cried they
all
again
, saying
, Not
this man
, but
Barabbas
. Now
Barabbas
was
a robber
.
