< John 18 >

1 When Jesus had said this, he went out with his disciples and crossed the Kidron ravine to a place where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples went.
Leleꞌ Yesus hule-oꞌe basa ma, Ana dea neu namaloloꞌ no ana mana tungga nara. Ara reu sia osi esa sia loe Kidron bobꞌoan. Boe ma ara rala reu.
2 The place was well known to Judas, the betrayer, for Jesus and his disciples had often met there.
Leleꞌ naa, malangga agama Yahudi ra malangga nara, ro atahori mia partei agama Farisi ra fee soldꞌadꞌu ma mana nanea atahori hira reu Yudas. Huu ana nae seo hendi Yesus. Yudas bubꞌuluꞌ osi a boe, huu Yesus naꞌabꞌue lao hetar sia naa no ana mana tungga nara ena. De Yudas se reu sia osi a rendi mbele, lambu-lantera, ma tee-tandeꞌ.
3 So Judas, who had obtained the soldiers of the Roman garrison, and some guards from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
4 Jesus, aware of all that was coming upon him, went to meet them, and said to them, ‘For whom are you looking?’
Tao-tao te, Yesus bubꞌuluꞌ basa mana nae dadꞌi neu Eni ena. De Ana lali mataꞌ neu ma natane nae, “Hei sangga seka?”
5 ‘Jesus of Nazareth,’ was their answer. ‘I am he,’ said Jesus. (Judas, the betrayer, was also standing with them.)
Boe ma rataa rae, “Hai sangga atahori esa, naran Yesus, mia kambo Nasaret.” Ma Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Au ena.” Leleꞌ naa, Yudas, nambariiꞌ naꞌabꞌue no se. Eni mana seo hendi Yesus.
6 When Jesus said “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground.
Leleꞌ Yesus olaꞌ nae, “Au ena,” boe ma atahori ra dinggoꞌ hela E, ma raꞌaloli reu rae a.
7 So he again asked for whom they were looking, and they answered, ‘Jesus of Nazareth.’
Boe ma Yesus natane seluꞌ se nae, “Hei sangga seka?” Ara rataa rae, “Yesus, atahori Nasaret.”
8 ‘I have already told you that I am he,’ replied Jesus, ‘so, if it is for me that you are looking, let these people go.’
Boe ma Yesus olaꞌ nae, “Au ufadꞌe faꞌ ra ae, Au ena. Dadꞌi mete ma ama sangga Au, na, afiꞌ humu laen ra. Hela se reu leo.”
9 This was in fulfilment of his words – “Of those whom you have given me I have not lost one.”
(Ana olaꞌ naꞌo naa fo tao dadꞌi saa fo Eni olaꞌ nita nae, “Amaꞌ. Basa atahori fo Amaꞌ fee neu Auꞌ ra, esa nda mopo sa boe.”)
10 At this, Simon Peter, who had a sword with him, drew it, and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
Leleꞌ naa, Simon Petrus nendi tafa eꞌekuꞌ esa. Ana lesu e, de nae tati atahori. Tao-tao te, ana tati naꞌetuꞌ atahori esa ndiki onan. (Atahori naa, naran Malkus. Eni malangga agama Yahudi ra malangga monaen aten.)
11 But Jesus said to Peter, ‘Sheathe your sword. Should I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?’
Boe ma Yesus denu Petrus nae, “Wae, Petrus! Dosoꞌ baliꞌ tafaꞌ ma nisiꞌ ngguman rala. Huu Ama ngga nafadꞌe basa ena oi Au musi hambu doidꞌosoꞌ mataꞌ ia. Dadꞌi hela neu leo! Naa onaꞌ Ana fee Au nggalas esa isin mana meruꞌ. Hela neu fo Au inu ubasaꞌ e.”
12 So the soldiers of the garrison, with their commanding officer and the Jewish guards, arrested Jesus and bound him,
Basa ma, malangga, soldꞌadꞌu ra, ro atahori Yahudi ra mana nanea nara, humu rala Yesus, de futu E.
13 and took him first of all to Annas. Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
De ara ro E nisi Anas. Anas naa, naeni Kayafas ama arin. Tooꞌ naa, Kayafas dadꞌi malangga agama Yahudi ra malangga monaen.
14 It was Caiaphas who had counselled the religious authorities, that it was best that one person should die for the people.
Kayafas ia, nanori nita atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara oi, “Malole lenaꞌ soaꞌ neu nggi, mete ma akaꞌ atahori esa mate fee neu basa atahori.”
15 Meanwhile Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. That disciple, being well-known to the high priest, went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard,
Simon Petrus tungga-tunggaꞌ a Yesus dean, namaloloꞌ no Yesus ana mana tunggan esa fai, naeni au, Yohanis. Agama Yahudi a malangga monaen nahine au. Naa de au bisa umuloloꞌ o Yesus misiꞌ eni umen sodꞌan rala.
16 while Peter stood outside by the door. Presently the other disciple – the one well-known to the high priest – went out and spoke to the portress, and brought Peter in.
Te Petrus nambariiꞌ siaꞌ a dea, deka-deka no lutu-mbaa lelesun. Au dea uu, ma olaꞌ o inaꞌ esa mana nanea sia naa, fo ona bee na au bisa o Petrus rala neu boe.
17 So the maidservant said to Peter, ‘Aren’t you also one of this man’s disciples?’ ‘No, I am not,’ he said.
Boe ma inaꞌ a natane Petrus oi, “Wee! Ho ia, Atahori naa ana mana tunggan esa boe, to?” Te Petrus nataa nae, “Hokoꞌ!”
18 The servants and guards were standing round a charcoal fire (which they had made because it was cold), and were warming themselves. Peter, too, was with them, standing and warming himself.
Leleꞌ naa, maꞌariniꞌ. Naa de atahori mana ranea ro ate ra rambariiꞌ dara ai. Boe ma Petrus neu, de dara ai naꞌabꞌue no se.
19 The high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
Leleꞌ naa, agama Yahudi malangga monaen dalahuluꞌ a paresaꞌ Yesus soꞌal nenorin, ma soꞌal ana mana tungga nara.
20 ‘For my part,’ answered Jesus, ‘I have spoken to all the world openly. I always taught in some synagogue, or in the Temple Courts, places where everyone assembles, and I never spoke of anything in secret.
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Au olaꞌ relo-relo fo basa atahori rena. Au unori ukundooꞌ a sia mamana fo hita atahori Yahudi ra biasa raꞌabꞌue siaꞌ a, naeni sia hita ume hule-oꞌe nara, ma sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a. Au nda olaꞌ funi-funiꞌ ita sa.
21 Why question me? Question those who have listened to me as to what I have spoken about to them. They must know what I said.’
Taꞌo bee de mutane Au? Mutane siaꞌ a atahori mana rena oꞌola Ngga ra. Huu tantu rahine saa fo Au olaꞌ ena.”
22 When Jesus said this, one of the guards, who was standing near, gave him a blow with his hand. ‘Do you answer the high priest like that?’ he exclaimed.
Leleꞌ Ana olaꞌ naꞌo naa, atahori mana nanea esa mana nambariiꞌ sia naa mbasa E, ma olaꞌ nae, “Afiꞌ olaꞌ maꞌo naa mo malangga monaeꞌ a!”
23 ‘If I said anything wrong, give evidence about it,’ replied Jesus, ‘but if not, why do you strike me?’
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe mbali e nae, “Mete ma Au olaꞌ sala ena, na, mutudꞌu salaꞌ naa beka. Te mete ma Au olaꞌ ndaa, na, taꞌo bee de ho mbasa Au?”
24 Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
Basa naa ma, Anas denu se rendi E nisiꞌ Kayafas, mana dadꞌi agama Yahudi malangga monaen. Leleꞌ ara roo E neu, Ana feꞌe manapaꞌaꞌ.
25 Meanwhile Simon Peter was standing there, warming himself; so they said to him, ‘Aren’t you also one of his disciples?’ Peter denied it. ‘No, I am not,’ he said.
Leleꞌ naa, Simon Petrus feꞌe nambariiꞌ dara ai. Boe ma atahori laen mana sia naa ra ratane mbali e rae, “Ho ia, Eni ana mana tunggan esa, to?” Te Petrus nafanii nae, “Hokoꞌ!”
26 One of the high priest’s servants, a relation of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, exclaimed, ‘Didn’t I myself see you with him in the garden?’
Sia naa hambu agama Yahudi malangga monaen aten esa. Eni bobonggiꞌ mia atahori fo Petrus tati etu ndiki roon. Natane nae, “Wee! Faꞌ ra ho mia osi naa boe, to? Au ita nggo mia naa boe!”
27 Peter again denied it; and at that moment a cock crowed.
Te Petrus nafanii seluꞌ fai, ma manu a koꞌokee boe.
28 From Caiaphas they took Jesus to the Government house. It was early in the morning. But they did not enter the Government house themselves, otherwise they might become defiled, and so be unable to eat the Passover.
Feꞌe fefetu anan, ara ro Yesus mia Kayafas, reu risiꞌ hofernor ume panggat na, sia soldꞌadꞌu Roma ra mamana nanean. Atahori Yahudi ra mesaꞌ se nda masoꞌ risiꞌ atahori Roma ra mamanan rala sa, huu naa tao se ranggenggeo, fo nda bisa raa fefeta Paska sa.
29 Therefore Pilate came outside to speak to them. ‘What charge do you bring against this man?’ he asked.
Basa ma, hofernor Pilatus dea neu de nandaa no atahori Yahudi ra. Boe ma natane nae, “Hei fua salaꞌ saa neu Atahori ia?”
30 ‘If he had not been a criminal, we should not have given him up to you,’ they answered.
Boe ma ara rataa rae, “Taꞌo ia, pak. Mete ma Eni ia, nda atahori deꞌulakaꞌ sa, tantu hai nda ima ngganggu pak sa. Saa fai fee Eni neu pak liman.”
31 ‘Take him yourselves,’ said Pilate, ‘and try him by your own Law.’ ‘We have no power to put anyone to death,’ the authorities replied –
Boe ma hofernor nafadꞌe se nae, “Taꞌo ia. Hela hei mana taoafiꞌ neu dedꞌeat na, tungga hei atahori Yahudi ra hohoro-lalanen.” Boe ma atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara rafadꞌe rae, “Nda bisa sa, pak. Hai atahori Yahudi ra nda miꞌena hak fo miꞌetuꞌ hukun mate sa. Naa akaꞌ hei mana parenda Roma ra fo miꞌena hak onaꞌ naa.”
32 in fulfilment of what Jesus had said when indicating the death that he was destined to die.
(Leleꞌ ara olaꞌ raꞌo naa, saa fo Yesus olaꞌ nita maꞌahulun, dadꞌi ena. Huu Ana nafadꞌe neu atahori nara nae, dei fo Ana mate tungga mana parenda Roma ra hadꞌa-dalan, naeni ara mbaku E sia hau ngganggeꞌ a.)
33 After that, Pilate went into the Government house again, and calling Jesus up, asked him, ‘Are you the king of the Jews?’
Boe ma hofernor baliꞌ nisiꞌ soldꞌadꞌu ra mamana nanean rala. De noꞌe nala Yesus, ma natane nae, “Ona bee? Ho ia, atahori Yahudi ra manen, do?”
34 ‘Do you ask me that yourself?’ replied Jesus, ‘or did others say it to you about me?’
Yesus natane baliꞌ mbali e nae, “Pak mesaꞌ ne mana mutane onaꞌ naa, do, atahori laen mana rafadꞌe pak soꞌal Au?”
35 ‘Do you take me for a Jew?’ was Pilate’s answer. ‘It is your own nation and the chief priests who have given you up to me. What have you done?’
Boe ma hofernor nataa nae, “Hee! Au ia, nda atahori Yahudi sa, to? Atahori mara mesaꞌ se, mana fee nggo neu au. Lelenan fai malangga agama Yahudi ra malangga nara. Ho ia, tao saa? Mufadꞌe sobꞌa dei!”
36 ‘My kingly power,’ replied Jesus, ‘is not due to this world. If it had been so, my servants would be doing their utmost to prevent my being given up to the authorities; but my kingly power is not from the world.’
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Au nda maneꞌ esa mia raefafoꞌ ia sa. Huu mete ma Au dadꞌi maneꞌ mataꞌ naa, tantu Au atahori dedenu ngga ra ramue fo atahori Yahudi ra nda dadꞌi humu Au sa. Memaꞌ Au dadꞌi Maneꞌ. Te nda hambu atahori sia raefafoꞌ ia mana soꞌu Au taꞌo naa sa.”
37 ‘So you are a king after all!’ exclaimed Pilate. ‘Yes, it is true I am a king,’ answered Jesus. ‘I was born for this, I have come into the world for this – to bear testimony to the truth. Everyone who is on the side of truth listens to my voice.’
De hofernor natane seluꞌ fai nae, “Dadꞌi ho ia, Maneꞌ, do?” Boe ma Yesus nataa nae, “Pak mana nae Au dadꞌi Maneꞌ. Matetun bonggi Au fo dadꞌi Maneꞌ. Au raefafoꞌ ia uma dadꞌi Maneꞌ, fo onaꞌ bee na ufadꞌe soꞌal dala-dala ndoo-tetuꞌ ra. Basa atahori mana toꞌu rahereꞌ dala-dala ndoo-tetuꞌ ra, na, ara rena Au.”
38 ‘What is truth?’ exclaimed Pilate. After saying this, he went out to the crowd again, and said, ‘For my part, I find nothing with which he can be charged.
Basa ma hofernor natane mbali E nae, “Ndoo-tetuꞌ naa, saa?” Leleꞌ hofernor Pilatus olaꞌ basa naꞌo naa, ma, baliꞌ dea neu nisiꞌ atahori Yahudi ra. Ana olaꞌ nae, “Au paresaꞌ E ena, te au nda hambu salan saa sa boe.
39 It is, however, the custom for me to grant you the release of one man at the Passover Festival. Do you wish for the release of the king of the Jews?’
Te hei hadꞌa-dala mara, tungga too sia fai fefeta Paska, au musi mboꞌi atahori bui esa fee neu nggi. Dadꞌi tooꞌ ia, hei nau au mboꞌi hendi atahori Yahudi ra manen, do taꞌo bee?”
40 ‘No, not this man,’ they shouted again, ‘but Barabbas!’ This Barabbas was a robber.
Basa se randu randaa rae, “Afiꞌ mboꞌi Atahori ia! Mboꞌiꞌ a Barabas!” Tao-tao te, Barabas naa, atahori esa fo deꞌulakan seli tebꞌe.
