They said therefore, "What is this that he says, 'A little while?' We don't know what he is saying."

Therefore Yeshua perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, "Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, 'A little while, and you won't see me, and again a little while, and you will see me?'

You therefore now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.

Yeshua therefore, knowing all the things that were coming on him, went forth, and said to them, "Who are you looking for?"

When therefore he said to them, "I AM," they went backward, and fell to the ground.

Again therefore he asked them, "Who are you looking for?" They said, "Yeshua of Natzeret."

Yeshua answered, "I told you that I AM. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,"

Shim`on Kefa therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the Kohen Gadol's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Melekh.

Yeshua therefore said to Kefa, "Put the sword into its sheath. The cup which the Father has given me, shall I not surely drink it?"

Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Yeshua, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Yehudim?"

Pilate therefore said to him, "Are you a king then?" Yeshua answered, "You say that I am a king. To this end I have been born, and to this end I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice."

But you have a custom, that I should release to you one at the Pesach. Therefore do you desire that I release to you the King of the Yehudim?"

Yeshua therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, "Behold, the man!"
