1 tAH kathAH kathayitvA yIzuH ziSyAnAdAya kidrOnnAmakaM srOta uttIryya ziSyaiH saha tatratyOdyAnaM prAvizat|
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 kintu vizvAsaghAtiyihUdAstat sthAnaM paricIyatE yatO yIzuH ziSyaiH sArddhaM kadAcit tat sthAnam agacchat|
Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
3 tadA sa yihUdAH sainyagaNaM pradhAnayAjakAnAM phirUzinAnjca padAtigaNanjca gRhItvA pradIpAn ulkAn astrANi cAdAya tasmin sthAna upasthitavAn|
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 svaM prati yad ghaTiSyatE taj jnjAtvA yIzuragrEsaraH san tAnapRcchat kaM gavESayatha?
Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went out and said to them, “Who are you looking for?”
5 tE pratyavadan, nAsaratIyaM yIzuM; tatO yIzuravAdId ahamEva saH; taiH saha vizvAsaghAtI yihUdAzcAtiSThat|
They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
6 tadAhamEva sa tasyaitAM kathAM zrutvaiva tE pazcAdEtya bhUmau patitAH|
When therefore he said to them, “I am he,” they went backward and fell to the ground.
7 tatO yIzuH punarapi pRSThavAn kaM gavESayatha? tatastE pratyavadan nAsaratIyaM yIzuM|
Again therefore he asked them, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 tadA yIzuH pratyuditavAn ahamEva sa imAM kathAmacakatham; yadi mAmanvicchatha tarhImAn gantuM mA vArayata|
Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,”
9 itthaM bhUtE mahyaM yAllOkAn adadAstESAm Ekamapi nAhArayam imAM yAM kathAM sa svayamakathayat sA kathA saphalA jAtA|
that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, “Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none.”
10 tadA zimOnpitarasya nikaTE khaggalsthitEH sa taM niSkOSaM kRtvA mahAyAjakasya mAlkhanAmAnaM dAsam Ahatya tasya dakSiNakarNaM chinnavAn|
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 tatO yIzuH pitaram avadat, khaggaM kOSE sthApaya mama pitA mahyaM pAtuM yaM kaMsam adadAt tEnAhaM kiM na pAsyAmi?
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 tadA sainyagaNaH sEnApati ryihUdIyAnAM padAtayazca yIzuM ghRtvA baddhvA hAnannAmnaH kiyaphAH zvazurasya samIpaM prathamam anayan|
So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and bound him,
13 sa kiyaphAstasmin vatsarE mahAyAjatvapadE niyuktaH
and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 san sAdhAraNalOkAnAM maggalArtham Ekajanasya maraNamucitam iti yihUdIyaiH sArddham amantrayat|
Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should perish for the people.
15 tadA zimOnpitarO'nyaikaziSyazca yIzOH pazcAd agacchatAM tasyAnyaziSyasya mahAyAjakEna paricitatvAt sa yIzunA saha mahAyAjakasyATTAlikAM prAvizat|
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 kintu pitarO bahirdvArasya samIpE'tiSThad ataEva mahAyAjakEna paricitaH sa ziSyaH punarbahirgatvA dauvAyikAyai kathayitvA pitaram abhyantaram Anayat|
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 tadA sa dvArarakSikA pitaram avadat tvaM kiM na tasya mAnavasya ziSyaH? tataH sOvadad ahaM na bhavAmi|
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 tataH paraM yatsthAnE dAsAH padAtayazca zItahEtOraggArai rvahniM prajvAlya tApaM sEvitavantastatsthAnE pitarastiSThan taiH saha vahnitApaM sEvitum Arabhata|
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 tadA ziSyESUpadEzE ca mahAyAjakEna yIzuH pRSTaH
The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
20 san pratyuktavAn sarvvalOkAnAM samakSaM kathAmakathayaM guptaM kAmapi kathAM na kathayitvA yat sthAnaM yihUdIyAH satataM gacchanti tatra bhajanagEhE mandirE cAzikSayaM|
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 mattaH kutaH pRcchasi? yE janA madupadEzam azRNvan tAnEva pRccha yadyad avadaM tE tat jAninta|
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 tadEtthaM pratyuditatvAt nikaTasthapadAti ryIzuM capETEnAhatya vyAharat mahAyAjakam EvaM prativadasi?
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 tatO yIzuH pratigaditavAn yadyayathArtham acakathaM tarhi tasyAyathArthasya pramANaM dEhi, kintu yadi yathArthaM tarhi kutO hEtO rmAm atAPayaH?
Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?”
24 pUrvvaM hAnan sabandhanaM taM kiyaphAmahAyAjakasya samIpaM praiSayat|
Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 zimOnpitarastiSThan vahnitApaM sEvatE, Etasmin samayE kiyantastam apRcchan tvaM kim Etasya janasya ziSyO na? tataH sOpahnutyAbravId ahaM na bhavAmi|
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 tadA mahAyAjakasya yasya dAsasya pitaraH karNamacchinat tasya kuTumbaH pratyuditavAn udyAnE tEna saha tiSThantaM tvAM kiM nApazyaM?
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 kintu pitaraH punarapahnutya kathitavAn; tadAnIM kukkuTO'raut|
Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
28 tadanantaraM pratyUSE tE kiyaphAgRhAd adhipatE rgRhaM yIzum anayan kintu yasmin azucitvE jAtE tai rnistArOtsavE na bhOktavyaM, tasya bhayAd yihUdIyAstadgRhaM nAvizan|
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 aparaM pIlAtO bahirAgatya tAn pRSThavAn Etasya manuSyasya kaM dOSaM vadatha?
Pilate therefore went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?”
30 tadA tE pEtyavadan duSkarmmakAriNi na sati bhavataH samIpE nainaM samArpayiSyAmaH|
They answered him, “If this man weren’t an evildoer, we wouldn’t have delivered him up to you.”
31 tataH pIlAtO'vadad yUyamEnaM gRhItvA svESAM vyavasthayA vicArayata| tadA yihUdIyAH pratyavadan kasyApi manuSyasya prANadaNPaM karttuM nAsmAkam adhikArO'sti|
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 EvaM sati yIzuH svasya mRtyau yAM kathAM kathitavAn sA saphalAbhavat|
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
33 tadanantaraM pIlAtaH punarapi tad rAjagRhaM gatvA yIzumAhUya pRSTavAn tvaM kiM yihUdIyAnAM rAjA?
Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”
34 yIzuH pratyavadat tvam EtAM kathAM svataH kathayasi kimanyaH kazcin mayi kathitavAn?
Jesus answered him, “Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?”
35 pIlAtO'vadad ahaM kiM yihUdIyaH? tava svadEzIyA vizESataH pradhAnayAjakA mama nikaTE tvAM samArpayana, tvaM kiM kRtavAn?
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 yIzuH pratyavadat mama rAjyam EtajjagatsambandhIyaM na bhavati yadi mama rAjyaM jagatsambandhIyam abhaviSyat tarhi yihUdIyAnAM hastESu yathA samarpitO nAbhavaM tadarthaM mama sEvakA ayOtsyan kintu mama rAjyam aihikaM na|
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 tadA pIlAtaH kathitavAn, tarhi tvaM rAjA bhavasi? yIzuH pratyuktavAn tvaM satyaM kathayasi, rAjAhaM bhavAmi; satyatAyAM sAkSyaM dAtuM janiM gRhItvA jagatyasmin avatIrNavAn, tasmAt satyadharmmapakSapAtinO mama kathAM zRNvanti|
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 tadA satyaM kiM? EtAM kathAM paSTvA pIlAtaH punarapi bahirgatvA yihUdIyAn abhASata, ahaM tasya kamapyaparAdhaM na prApnOmi|
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 nistArOtsavasamayE yuSmAbhirabhirucita EkO janO mayA mOcayitavya ESA yuSmAkaM rItirasti, ataEva yuSmAkaM nikaTE yihUdIyAnAM rAjAnaM kiM mOcayAmi, yuSmAkam icchA kA?
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 tadA tE sarvvE ruvantO vyAharan EnaM mAnuSaM nahi barabbAM mOcaya| kintu sa barabbA dasyurAsIt|
Then they all shouted again, saying, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
