When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, himself and his disciples.

Now Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft-times resorted thither with his disciples.
3 ⲅ̅ ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ϭⲉ ⲉⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥⲡⲉⲓⲣⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲉⲛϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ϩⲉⲛⲫⲁⲛⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲉⲛⲗⲁⲙⲡⲁⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ.
Judas then, having received the band [of soldiers], and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them, Whom seek ye?
5 ⲉ̅ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲛϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲛⲁⲍⲱⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ. ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ. ⲛⲉϥⲁϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲓⲇⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am [he]. And Judas also, which betrayed him, was standing with them.
When therefore he said unto them, I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground.
Again therefore he asked them, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
8 ⲏ̅ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲁⲉ͡ⲓϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϭⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲉ͡ⲓ ⲕⲁⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲁⲣⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ
Jesus answered, I told you that I am [he]: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:
that the word might be fulfilled which he spake, Of those whom thou hast given me I lost not one.
10 ⲓ̅ ⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲥⲏϥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥⲧⲟⲕⲙⲉⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲣⲉϩⲧⲡϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲁϥⲥⲗⲡ̅ⲡⲉϥⲙⲁⲁϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ. ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲡⲉ ⲙⲁⲗⲭⲟⲥ.
Simon Peter therefore having a sword drew it, and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant’s name was Malchus.
Jesus therefore said unto Peter, Put up the sword into the sheath: the cup which the Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
So the band and the chief captain, and the officers of the Jews, seized Jesus and bound him,
and led him to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was high priest that year.
Now Caiaphas was he which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ ⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲏϩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲕⲉⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ⲡⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕʾ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅.
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and [so did] another disciple. Now that disciple was known unto the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest;
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲡⲉ ⲃ̅ⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲟ. ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲙⲛⲟⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥϫⲓⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ.
but Peter was standing at the door without. So the other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, went out and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ⲧϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲏ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ϩⲱⲱⲕ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲏ. ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ.
The maid therefore that kept the door saith unto Peter, Art thou also [one] of this man’s disciples? He saith, I am not.
18 ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ ⲛⲉⲩⲁϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲁⲩϫⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩϣⲁϩ ⲉⲩⲑⲙ̅ⲟ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡϫⲁϥ ⲃ̅ⲃⲟⲗ. ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲉϥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲉϥⲑⲙⲟ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
Now the servants and the officers were standing [there], having made a fire of coals; for it was cold; and they were warming themselves: and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.
The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his teaching.
20 ⲕ̅ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲓ̈ϯⲥⲃⲱ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉϣⲁⲣⲉⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓϫⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲡ.
Jesus answered him, I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and in secret spake I nothing.
21 ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ ⲁϩⲣⲟⲕ ⲕϫⲛⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲙⲁϫⲛⲉⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲩ. ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ
Why askest thou me? ask them that have heard [me], what I spake unto them: behold, these know the things which I said.
22 ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲛⲛ̅ϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲉϥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲁϥⲣⲉϩⲧ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲁⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ.
And when he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?
23 ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲉϣϫⲉⲕⲁⲕⲱⲥ ⲁⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲁⲣⲓⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ϩⲁⲡⲁⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲕⲁⲗⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ. ⲁϩⲣⲟⲕ ⲕϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲉⲓ.
Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?
Annas therefore sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore unto him, Art thou also [one] of his disciples? He denied, and said, I am not.

One of the servants of the high priest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
Peter therefore denied again: and straightway the cock crew.

They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the palace: and it was early; and they themselves entered not into the palace, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.

Pilate therefore went out unto them, and saith, What accusation bring ye against this man?
They answered and said unto him, If this man were not an evil-doer, we should not have delivered him up unto thee.

Pilate therefore said unto them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. The Jews said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying by what manner of death he should die.
33 ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲡⲣⲁ͡ⲓⲧⲱⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉ͡ⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈.
Pilate therefore entered again into the palace, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?

Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests 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 have I been born, and to this end am I come 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 no crime in him.

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?
They cried out therefore again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
