When Jesus had spoken these words, He went away with His disciples across the ravine of the Kidron, where there was a garden which He entered with His disciples.

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

Now Judas, who was betraying Him, also knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with His disciples.

And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.

So Judas, having obtained the Roman cohort and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.

Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, came out into the open and said to them, "Whom are you seeking?"

Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

They answered Him, "Jesus the Nazarene." He said to them, "I am He." And Judas also, who was betraying Him, was standing with them.

They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.

Now then, when He said to them, "I am He," they drew back and fell to the ground.

As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.

He then asked them again, "Whom are you seeking?" And they said, "Jesus the Nazarene."

Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

Jesus answered, "I told you that I am He; so if you are seeking Me, let these men go on their way."

Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:

This took place so that the word which He spoke would be fulfilled: "Of those whom You have given Me I lost not one."

That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.

Then Simon Peter, since he had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's slave, and cut off his right ear; and the slave's name was Malchus.

Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

So Jesus said to Peter, "Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given Me, am I not to drink it?"

Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

So the Roman cohort, the commander, and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him,

Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,

and brought Him to Annas first; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.

And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

Now Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it was in their best interest for one man to die in behalf of the people.

Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest,

And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.

but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper, and brought Peter in.

But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

Then the slave woman who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, "You are not also one of this Man's disciples, are you?" He said, "I am not."

Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.

Now the slaves and the officers were standing there, having made a charcoal fire, for it was cold and they were warming themselves; and Peter was also with them, standing and warming himself.

And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.

The high priest then questioned Jesus about His disciples, and about His teaching.

The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I always taught in synagogues and in the temple area, where all the Jews congregate; and I said nothing in secret.

Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.

"Why are you asking Me? Ask those who have heard what I spoke to them. Look: these people know what I said."

Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.

But when He said this, one of the officers, who was standing nearby, struck Jesus, saying, "Is that the way You answer the high priest?"

And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?

Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, testify of the wrong; but if rightly, why do you strike Me?"

Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?

So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

Now Simon Peter was still standing and warming himself. So they said to him, "You are not one of His disciples as well, are you?" He denied it, and said, "I am not."

And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.

One of the slaves of the high priest, who was related to the one whose ear Peter cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with Him?"

One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

Peter then denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.

Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.

Then they brought Jesus from Caiaphas into the Praetorium, and it was early; and they themselves did not enter the Praetorium, so that they would not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.

Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.

Therefore Pilate came out to them and said, "What accusation are you bringing against this Man?"

Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?

They answered and said to him, "If this Man were not a criminal, we would not have handed Him over to you."

They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.

So Pilate said to them, "Take Him yourselves, and judge Him according to your law." The Jews said to him, "We are not permitted to put anyone to death."

Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:

This happened so that the word of Jesus which He said, indicating what kind of death He was going to die, would be fulfilled.

That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.

Therefore Pilate entered the Praetorium again, and summoned Jesus and said to Him, "You are the King of the Jews?"

Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?

Jesus answered, "Are you saying this on your own, or did others tell you about Me?"

Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?

Pilate answered, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests handed You over to me; what have You done?"

Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?

Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm."

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.

Therefore Pilate said to Him, "So You are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say correctly that I am a king. For this purpose I have been born, and for this I have come into the world: to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice."

Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

Pilate said to Him, "What is truth?" And after saying this, he came out again to the Jews and said to them, "I find no grounds at all for charges in His case.

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 in him no fault at all.

"However, you have a custom that I release one prisoner for you at the Passover; therefore do you wish that I release for you the King of the Jews?"

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?

So they shouted again, saying, "Not this Man, but Barabbas." Now Barabbas was a rebel.

Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
