18:1  haec cum dixisset Iesus egressus       1.  When Jesus had spoken these words,
est cum discipulis suis trans torrentem      he went forth with his disciples over
Cedron ubi erat hortus in quem               the brook Cedron, where was a garden,
introivit ipse et discipuli eius             into the which he entered, and his
                                             disciples.

18:2  sciebat autem et Iudas qui             2.  And Judas also, which betrayed him,
tradebat eum ipsum locum quia                knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes
frequenter Iesus convenerat illuc cum        resorted thither with his disciples.
discipulis suis

18:3  Iudas ergo cum accepisset              3.  Judas then, having received a band
cohortem et a pontificibus et                of men and officers from the chief
Pharisaeis ministros venit illuc cum         priests and Pharisees, cometh thither
lanternis et facibus et armis                with lanterns and torches and weapons.

18:4  Iesus itaque sciens omnia quae         4.  Jesus therefore, knowing all things
ventura erant super eum processit et         that should come upon him, went forth,
dicit eis quem quaeritis                     and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

18:5  responderunt ei Iesum Nazarenum        5.  They answered him, Jesus of
dicit eis Iesus ego sum stabat autem et      Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am
Iudas qui tradebat eum cum ipsis             he. And Judas also, which betrayed him,
                                             stood with them.

18:6  ut ergo dixit eis ego sum              6.  As soon then as he had said unto
abierunt retrorsum et ceciderunt in          them, I am he, they went backward, and
terram                                       fell to the ground.

18:7  iterum ergo eos interrogavit quem      7.  Then asked he them again, Whom seek
quaeritis illi autem dixerunt Iesum          ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
Nazarenum

18:8  respondit Iesus dixi vobis quia        8.  Jesus answered, I have told you
ego sum si ergo me quaeritis sinite hos      that I am he: if therefore ye seek me,
abire                                        let these go their way:

18:9  ut impleretur sermo quem dixit         9.  That the saying might be fulfilled,
quia quos dedisti mihi non perdidi ex        which he spake, Of them which thou
ipsis quemquam                               gavest me have I lost none.

18:10  Simon ergo Petrus habens gladium      10.  Then Simon Peter having a sword
eduxit eum et percussit pontificis           drew it, and smote the high priest's
servum et abscidit eius auriculam            servant, and cut off his right ear. The
dextram erat autem nomen servo Malchus       servant's name was Malchus.

18:11  dixit ergo Iesus Petro mitte          11.  Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up
gladium in vaginam calicem quem dedit        thy sword into the sheath: the cup
mihi Pater non bibam illum                   which my Father hath given me, shall I
                                             not drink it?

18:12  cohors ergo et tribunus et            12.  Then the band and the captain and
ministri Iudaeorum conprehenderunt           officers of the Jews took Jesus, and
Iesum et ligaverunt eum                      bound him,

18:13  et adduxerunt eum ad Annam            13.  And led him away to Annas first;
primum erat enim socer Caiaphae qui          for he was father in law to Caiaphas,
erat pontifex anni illius                    which was the high priest that same
                                             year.

18:14  erat autem Caiaphas qui               14.  Now Caiaphas was he, which gave
consilium dederat Iudaeis quia expedit       counsel to the Jews, that it was
unum hominem mori pro populo                 expedient that one man should die for
                                             the people.

18:15  sequebatur autem Iesum Simon          15.  And Simon Peter followed Jesus,
Petrus et alius discipulus discipulus        and so did another disciple: that
autem ille erat notus pontifici et           disciple was known unto the high
introivit cum Iesu in atrium pontificis      priest, and went in with Jesus into the
                                             palace of the high priest.

18:16  Petrus autem stabat ad ostium         16.  But Peter stood at the door
foris exivit ergo discipulus alius qui       without. Then went out that other
erat notus pontifici et dixit ostiariae      disciple, which was known unto the high
et introduxit Petrum                         priest, and spake unto her that kept
                                             the door, and brought in Peter.

18:17  dicit ergo Petro ancilla              17.  Then saith the damsel that kept
ostiaria numquid et tu ex discipulis es      the door unto Peter, Art not thou also
hominis istius dicit ille non sum            one of this man's disciples? He saith,
                                             I am not.

18:18  stabant autem servi et ministri       18.  And the servants and officers
ad prunas quia frigus erat et                stood there, who had made a fire of
calefiebant erat autem cum eis et            coals; for it was cold: and they warmed
Petrus stans et calefaciens se               themselves: and Peter stood with them,
                                             and warmed himself.

18:19  pontifex ergo interrogavit Iesum      19.  The high priest then asked Jesus
de discipulis suis et de doctrina eius       of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

18:20  respondit ei Iesus ego palam          20.  Jesus answered him, I spake openly
locutus sum mundo ego semper docui in        to the world; I ever taught in the
synagoga et in templo quo omnes Iudaei       synagogue, and in the temple, whither
conveniunt et in occulto locutus sum         the Jews always resort; and in secret
nihil                                        have I said nothing.

18:21  quid me interrogas interroga eos      21.  Why askest thou me? ask them which
qui audierunt quid locutus sum ipsis         heard me, what I have said unto them:
ecce hii sciunt quae dixerim ego             behold, they know what I said.

18:22  haec autem cum dixisset unus          22.  And when he had thus spoken, one
adsistens ministrorum dedit alapam Iesu      of the officers which stood by struck
dicens sic respondes pontifici               Jesus with the palm of his hand,
                                             saying, Answerest thou the high priest
                                             so?

18:23  respondit ei Iesus si male            23.  Jesus answered him, If I have
locutus sum testimonium perhibe de malo      spoken evil, bear witness of the evil:
si autem bene quid me caedis                 but if well, why smitest thou me?

18:24  et misit eum Annas ligatum ad         24.  Now Annas had sent him bound unto
Caiaphan pontificem                          Caiaphas the high priest.

18:25  erat autem Simon Petrus stans et      25.  And Simon Peter stood and warmed
calefaciens se dixerunt ergo ei numquid      himself. They said therefore unto him,
et tu ex discipulis eius es negavit          Art not thou also one of his disciples?
ille et dixit non sum                        He denied it, and said, I am not.

18:26  dicit unus ex servis pontificis       26.  One of the servants of the high
cognatus eius cuius abscidit Petrus          priest, being his kinsman whose ear
auriculam nonne ego te vidi in horto         Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see
cum illo                                     thee in the garden with him?

18:27  iterum ergo negavit Petrus et         27.  Peter then denied again: and
statim gallus cantavit                       immediately the cock crew.

18:28  adducunt ergo Iesum a Caiapha in      28.  Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas
praetorium erat autem mane et ipsi non       unto the hall of judgment: and it was
introierunt in praetorium ut non             early; and they themselves went not
contaminarentur sed manducarent pascha       into the judgment hall, lest they
                                             should be defiled; but that they might
                                             eat the passover.

18:29  exivit ergo Pilatus ad eos foras      29.  Pilate then went out unto them,
et dixit quam accusationem adfertis          and said, What accusation bring ye
adversus hominem hunc                        against this man?

18:30  responderunt et dixerunt ei si        30.  They answered and said unto him,
non esset hic malefactor non tibi            If he were not a malefactor, we would
tradidissemus eum                            not have delivered him up unto thee.

18:31  dixit ergo eis Pilatus accipite       31.  Then said Pilate unto them, Take
eum vos et secundum legem vestram            ye him, and judge him according to your
iudicate eum dixerunt ergo ei Iudaei         law. The Jews therefore said unto him,
nobis non licet interficere quemquam         It is not lawful for us to put any man
                                             to death:

18:32  ut sermo Iesu impleretur quem         32.  That the saying of Jesus might be
dixit significans qua esset morte            fulfilled, which he spake, signifying
moriturus                                    what death he should die.

18:33  introivit ergo iterum in              33.  Then Pilate entered into the
praetorium Pilatus et vocavit Iesum et       judgment hall again, and called Jesus,
dixit ei tu es rex Iudaeorum                 and said unto him, Art thou the King of
                                             the Jews?

18:34  et respondit Iesus a temet ipso       34.  Jesus answered him, Sayest thou
hoc dicis an alii tibi dixerunt de me        this thing of thyself, or did others
                                             tell it thee of me?

18:35  respondit Pilatus numquid ego         35.  Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine
Iudaeus sum gens tua et pontifices           own nation and the chief priests have
tradiderunt te mihi quid fecisti             delivered thee unto me: what hast thou
                                             done?

18:36  respondit Iesus regnum meum non       36.  Jesus answered, My kingdom is not
est de mundo hoc si ex hoc mundo esset       of this world: if my kingdom were of
regnum meum ministri mei decertarent ut      this world, then would my servants
non traderer Iudaeis nunc autem meum         fight, that I should not be delivered
regnum non est hinc                          to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not
                                             from hence.

18:37  dixit itaque ei Pilatus ergo rex      37.  Pilate therefore said unto him,
es tu respondit Iesus tu dicis quia rex      Art thou a king then? Jesus answered,
sum ego ego in hoc natus sum et ad hoc       Thou sayest that I am a king. To this
veni in mundum ut testimonium perhibeam      end was I born, and for this cause came
veritati omnis qui est ex veritate           I into the world, that I should bear
audit meam vocem                             witness unto the truth. Every one that
                                             is of the truth heareth my voice.

18:38  dicit ei Pilatus quid est             38.  Pilate saith unto him, What is
veritas et cum hoc dixisset iterum           truth? And when he had said this, he
exivit ad Iudaeos et dicit eis ego           went out again unto the Jews, and saith
nullam invenio in eo causam                  unto them, I find in him no fault at
                                             all.

18:39  est autem consuetudo vobis ut         39.  But ye have a custom, that I
unum dimittam vobis in pascha vultis         should release unto you one at the
ergo dimittam vobis regem Iudaeorum          passover: will ye therefore that I
                                             release unto you the King of the Jews?

18:40  clamaverunt rursum omnes              40.  Then cried they all again, saying,
dicentes non hunc sed Barabban erat          Not this man, but Barabbas. Now
autem Barabbas latro                         Barabbas was a robber.
