¹So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.

KJVThen^G5119 Pilate^G4091 therefore^G3767 took^G2983^(G5627) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 scourged^G3146^(G5656) him.

² The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.

KJVAnd^G2532 the soldiers^G4757 platted^G4120^(G5660) a crown^G4735 of^G1537 thorns^G173, and put it on^G2007^(G5656) his^G846 head^G2776, and^G2532 they put on^G4016^(G5627) him^G846 a purple^G4210 robe^G2440,

³ They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.

KJVAnd^G2532 said^G3004^(G5707), Hail^G5463^(G5720), King^G935 of the Jews^G2453! and^G2532 they smote^G1325^(G5707) him^G846 with their hands^G4475.

⁴ Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”

KJVPilate^G4091 therefore^G3767 went^G1831^(G5627) forth^G1854 again^G3825, and^G2532 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Behold^G2396, I bring^G71^(G5719) him^G846 forth^G1854 to you^G5213, that^G2443 ye may know^G1097^(G5632) that^G3754 I find^G2147^(G5719) no^G3762 fault^G156 in^G1722 him^G846.

⁵ Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Behold, the man!”

KJVThen^G3767 came^G1831^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 forth^G1854, wearing^G5409^(G5723) the crown^G4735 of thorns^G174, and^G2532 the purple^G4210 robe^G2440. And^G2532 Pilate saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Behold^G2396 the man^G444!

⁶ When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.”

KJVWhen^G3753 the chief priests^G749 therefore^G3767 and^G2532 officers^G5257 saw^G1492^(G5627) him^G846, they cried out^G2905^(G5656), saying^G3004^(G5723), Crucify^G4717^(G5657) him, crucify^G4717^(G5657) him. Pilate^G4091 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Take^G2983^(G5628) ye^G5210 him^G846, and^G2532 crucify^G4717^(G5657) him: for^G1063 I^G1473 find^G2147^(G5719) no^G3756 fault^G156 in^G1722 him^G846.

⁷ The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”

KJVThe Jews^G2453 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, We^G2249 have^G2192^(G5719) a law^G3551, and^G2532 by^G2596 our^G2257 law^G3551 he ought^G3784^(G5719) to die^G599^(G5629), because^G3754 he made^G4160^(G5656) himself^G1438 the Son^G5207 of God^G2316.

⁸ When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.

KJVWhen^G3753 Pilate^G4091 therefore^G3767 heard^G191^(G5656) that^G5126 saying^G3056, he was^G5399 the more^G3123 afraid^G5399^(G5675);

⁹ He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.

KJVAnd^G2532 went^G1525^(G5627) again^G3825 into^G1519 the judgment hall^G4232, and^G2532 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto Jesus^G2424, Whence^G4159 art^G1488^(G5748) thou^G4771? But^G1161 Jesus^G2424 gave^G1325^(G5656) him^G846 no^G3756 answer^G612.

¹⁰ Pilate therefore said to him, “Aren’t you speaking to me? Don’t you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?”

KJVThen^G3767 saith^G3004^(G5719) Pilate^G4091 unto him^G846, Speakest thou^G2980^(G5719) not^G3756 unto me^G1698? knowest thou^G1492^(G5758) not^G3756 that^G3754 I have^G2192^(G5719) power^G1849 to crucify^G4717^(G5658) thee^G4571, and^G2532 have^G2192^(G5719) power^G1849 to release^G630^(G5658) thee^G4571?

¹¹ Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662), Thou couldest have^G2192^(G5707) no^G3756 power^G1849 at all against^G3762^G2596 me^G1700, except^G1508 it were^G2258^(G5713) given^G1325^(G5772) thee^G4671 from above^G509: therefore^G5124^G1223 he that delivered^G3860^(G5723) me^G3165 unto thee^G4671 hath^G2192^(G5719) the greater^G3187 sin^G266.

¹² At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you aren’t Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!”

KJVAnd from^G1537 thenceforth^G5127 Pilate^G4091 sought^G2212^(G5707) to release^G630^(G5658) him^G846: but^G1161 the Jews^G2453 cried out^G2896^(G5707), saying^G3004^(G5723), If^G1437 thou let^G630 this man^G5126 go^G630^(G5661), thou art^G1488^(G5748) not^G3756 Caesar's^G2541 friend^G5384: whosoever^G3956 maketh^G4160^(G5723) himself^G846 a king^G935 speaketh against^G483^(G5719) Caesar^G2541.

¹³ When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called “The Pavement”, but in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.”

KJVWhen Pilate^G4091 therefore^G3767 heard^G191^(G5660) that^G5126 saying^G3056, he brought^G71^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 forth^G1854, and^G2532 sat down^G2523^(G5656) in^G1909 the judgment seat^G968 in^G1519 a place^G5117 that is called^G3004^(G5746) the Pavement^G3038, but^G1161 in the Hebrew^G1447, Gabbatha^G1042.

¹⁴ Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”

KJVAnd^G1161 it was^G2258^(G5713) the preparation^G3904 of the passover^G3957, and^G1161 about^G5616 the sixth^G1623 hour^G5610: and^G2532 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto the Jews^G2453, Behold^G2396 your^G5216 King^G935!

¹⁵ They cried out, “Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”

KJVBut^G1161 they cried out^G2905^(G5656), Away with^G142^(G5657) him, away with^G142^(G5657) him, crucify^G4717^(G5657) him^G846. Pilate^G4091 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Shall I crucify^G4717^(G5692) your^G5216 King^G935? The chief priests^G749 answered^G611^(G5662), We have^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 king^G935 but^G1508 Caesar^G2541.

¹⁶ So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.

KJVThen^G5119 delivered he^G3860^(G5656) him^G846 therefore^G3767 unto them^G846 to^G2443 be crucified^G4717^(G5686). And^G1161 they took^G3880^(G5627) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 led him away^G520^(G5627).

¹⁷ He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,

KJVAnd^G2532 he bearing^G941^(G5723) his^G846 cross^G4716 went forth^G1831^(G5627) into^G1519 a place^G5117 called^G3004^(G5746) the place of a skull^G2898, which^G3739 is called^G3004^(G5743) in the Hebrew^G1447 Golgotha^G1115:

¹⁸ where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.

KJVWhere^G3699 they crucified^G4717^(G5656) him^G846, and^G2532 two^G1417 other^G243 with^G3326 him^G846, on either side one^G2532^G1782^G1782, and^G1161 Jesus^G2424 in the midst^G3319.

¹⁹ Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, “JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

KJVAnd^G1161^G2532 Pilate^G4091 wrote^G1125^(G5656) a title^G5102, and^G2532 put^G5087^(G5656) it on^G1909 the cross^G4716. And^G1161 the writing^G1125^(G5772) was^G2258^(G5713), JESUS^G2424 OF NAZARETH^G3480 THE KING^G935 OF THE JEWS^G2453.

²⁰ Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.

KJVThis^G5126 title^G5102 then^G3767 read^G314^(G5627) many^G4183 of the Jews^G2453: for^G3754 the place^G5117 where^G3699 Jesus^G2424 was crucified^G4717^(G5681) was^G2258^(G5713) nigh^G1451 to the city^G4172: and^G2532 it was^G2258^(G5713) written^G1125^(G5772) in Hebrew^G1447, and Greek^G1676, and Latin^G4515.

²¹ The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Don’t write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, “I am King of the Jews.”’”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G3004^(G5707) the chief priests^G749 of the Jews^G2453 to Pilate^G4091, Write^G1125^(G5720) not^G3361, The King^G935 of the Jews^G2453; but^G235 that^G3754 he^G1565 said^G2036^(G5627), I am^G1510^(G5748) King^G935 of the Jews^G2453.

²² Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”

KJVPilate^G4091 answered^G611^(G5662), What^G3739 I have written^G1125^(G5758) I have written^G1125^(G5758).

²³ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

KJVThen^G3767 the soldiers^G4757, when^G3753 they had crucified^G4717^(G5656) Jesus^G2424, took^G2983^(G5627) his^G846 garments^G2440, and^G2532 made^G4160^(G5656) four^G5064 parts^G3313, to every^G1538 soldier^G4757 a part^G3313; and also^G2532 his coat^G5509: now^G1161 the coat^G5509 was^G2258^(G5713) without seam^G729, woven^G5307 from^G1537 the top^G509 throughout^G1223^G3650.

²⁴ Then they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They parted my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.

KJVThey said^G2036^(G5627) therefore^G3767 among^G4314 themselves^G240, Let us^G4977 not^G3361 rend^G4977^(G5661) it^G846, but^G235 cast lots^G2975^(G5632) for^G4012 it^G846, whose^G5101 it shall be^G2071^(G5704): that^G2443 the scripture^G1124 might be fulfilled^G4137^(G5686), which^G3588 saith^G3004^(G5723), They parted^G1266^(G5668) my^G3450 raiment^G2440 among them^G1438, and^G2532 for^G1909 my^G3450 vesture^G2441 they did cast^G906^(G5627) lots^G2819. These things^G5023^G3303 therefore^G3767 the soldiers^G4757 did^G4160^(G5656).

²⁵ But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

KJVNow^G1161 there stood^G2476^(G5715) by^G3844 the cross^G4716 of Jesus^G2424 his^G846 mother^G3384, and^G2532 his^G846 mother's^G3384 sister^G79, Mary^G3137 the wife^G3588 of Cleophas^G2832, and^G2532 Mary^G3137 Magdalene^G3094.

²⁶ Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”

KJVWhen Jesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 saw^G1492^(G5631) his mother^G3384, and^G2532 the disciple^G3101 standing by^G3936^(G5761), whom^G3739 he loved^G25^(G5707), he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto his^G846 mother^G3384, Woman^G1135, behold^G2400^(G5628) thy^G4675 son^G5207!

²⁷ Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.

KJVThen^G1534 saith he^G3004^(G5719) to the disciple^G3101, Behold^G2400^(G5628) thy^G4675 mother^G3384! And^G2532 from^G575 that^G1565 hour^G5610 that disciple^G3101 took^G2983^(G5627) her^G846 unto^G1519 his own^G2398 home.

²⁸ After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”

KJVAfter^G3326 this^G5124, Jesus^G2424 knowing^G1492^(G5761) that^G3754 all things^G3956 were^G5055 now^G2235 accomplished^G5055^(G5769), that^G2443 the scripture^G1124 might be fulfilled^G5048^(G5686), saith^G3004^(G5719), I thirst^G1372^(G5719).

²⁹ Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.

KJVNow^G3767 there was set^G2749^(G5711) a vessel^G4632 full^G3324 of vinegar^G3690: and^G1161 they filled^G4130^(G5660) a spunge^G4699 with vinegar^G3690, and^G2532 put it upon^G4060^(G5631) hyssop^G5301, and put^G4374^(G5656) it to his^G846 mouth^G4750.

³⁰ When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

KJVWhen^G3753 Jesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 had received^G2983^(G5627) the vinegar^G3690, he said^G2036^(G5627), It is finished^G5055^(G5769): and^G2532 he bowed^G2827^(G5660) his head^G2776, and gave up^G3860^(G5656) the ghost^G4151.

³¹ Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.

KJVThe Jews^G2453 therefore^G3767, because^G1893 it was^G2258^(G5713)^(G5625)^G2258^(G5713) the preparation^G3904, that^G3363 the bodies^G4983 should^G3306 not^G3363 remain^G3306^(G5661) upon^G1909 the cross^G4716 on^G1722 the sabbath day^G4521,(for^G1063 that^G1565 sabbath day^G4521 was^G2258^(G5713) an high^G3173 day^G2250,) besought^G2065^(G5656) Pilate^G4091 that^G2443 their^G846 legs^G4628 might be broken^G2608^(G5652), and^G2532 that they might be taken away^G142^(G5686).

³² Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;

KJVThen^G3767 came^G2064^(G5627) the soldiers^G4757, and^G2532 brake^G2608^(G5656) the legs^G4628 of the^G3303 first^G4413, and^G2532 of the other^G243 which^G3588 was crucified with^G4957^(G5685) him^G846.

³³ but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs.

KJVBut^G1161 when^G5613 they came^G2064^(G5631) to^G1909 Jesus^G2424, and saw^G1492^(G5627) that he^G846 was dead^G2348^(G5761) already^G2235, they brake^G2608^(G5656) not^G3756 his^G846 legs^G4628:

³⁴ However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

KJVBut^G235 one^G1520 of the soldiers^G4757 with a spear^G3057 pierced^G3572^(G5656) his^G846 side^G4125, and^G2532 forthwith^G2117 came there out^G1831^(G5627) blood^G129 and^G2532 water^G5204.

³⁵ He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.

KJVAnd^G2532 he that saw^G3708^(G5761) it bare record^G3140^(G5758), and^G2532 his^G846 record^G3141 is^G2076^(G5748) true^G228: and he^G2548 knoweth^G1492^(G5758) that^G3754 he saith^G3004^(G5719) true^G227, that^G2443 ye^G5210 might believe^G4100^(G5661).

³⁶ For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”

KJVFor^G1063 these things^G5023 were done^G1096^(G5633), that^G2443 the scripture^G1124 should be fulfilled^G4137^(G5686), A bone^G3747 of him^G846 shall^G4937 not^G3756 be broken^G4937^(G5691).

³⁷ Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”

KJVAnd^G2532 again^G3825 another^G2087 scripture^G1124 saith^G3004^(G5719), They shall look^G3700^(G5695) on^G1519 him whom^G3739 they pierced^G1574^(G5656).

³⁸ After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.

KJVAnd^G1161 after^G3326 this^G5023 Joseph^G2501 of^G575 Arimathaea^G707, being^G5607^(G5752) a disciple^G3101 of Jesus^G2424, but^G1161 secretly^G2928^(G5772) for^G1223 fear^G5401 of the Jews^G2453, besought^G2065^(G5656) Pilate^G4091 that^G2443 he might take away^G142^(G5661) the body^G4983 of Jesus^G2424: and^G2532 Pilate^G4091 gave him leave^G2010^(G5656). He came^G2064^(G5627) therefore^G3767, and^G2532 took^G142^(G5656) the body^G4983 of Jesus^G2424.

³⁹ Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.

KJVAnd^G1161 there came^G2064^(G5627) also^G2532 Nicodemus^G3530, which^G3588 at the first^G4412 came^G2064^(G5631) to^G4314 Jesus^G2424 by night^G3571, and brought^G5342^(G5723) a mixture^G3395 of myrrh^G4666 and^G2532 aloes^G250, about^G5616 an hundred^G1540 pound^G3046 weight.

⁴⁰ So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.

KJVThen^G3767 took they^G2983^(G5627) the body^G4983 of Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 wound^G1210^(G5656) it^G846 in linen clothes^G3608 with^G3326 the spices^G759, as^G2531 the manner^G1485 of the Jews^G2453 is^G2076^(G5748) to bury^G1779^(G5721).

⁴¹ Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid.

KJVNow^G1161 in^G1722 the place^G5117 where^G3699 he was crucified^G4717^(G5681) there was^G2258^(G5713) a garden^G2779; and^G2532 in^G1722 the garden^G2779 a new^G2537 sepulchre^G3419, wherein^G1722^G3739 was^G5087 never^G3764 man^G3762 yet^G3764 laid^G5087^(G5681).

⁴² Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.

KJVThere^G1563 laid they^G5087^(G5656) Jesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 because^G1223 of the Jews^G2453' preparation^G3904 day; for^G3754 the sepulchre^G3419 was^G2258^(G5713) nigh at hand^G1451.

WEB·John 18

¹When 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.

KJVWhen Jesus^G2424 had spoken^G2036^(G5631) these words^G5023, he went forth^G1831^(G5627) with^G4862 his^G846 disciples^G3101 over^G4008 the brook^G5493 Cedron^G2748, where^G3699 was^G2258^(G5713) a garden^G2779, into^G1519 the which^G3739 he^G846 entered^G1525^(G5627), and^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101.

² Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.

KJVAnd^G1161 Judas^G2455 also^G2532, which^G3588 betrayed^G3860^(G5723) him^G846, knew^G1492^(G5715) the place^G5117: for^G3754 Jesus^G2424 ofttimes^G4178 resorted^G4863^(G5681) thither^G1563 with^G3326 his^G846 disciples^G3101.

³ Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

KJVJudas^G2455 then^G3767, having received^G2983^(G5631) a band^G4686 of men and^G2532 officers^G5257 from^G1537 the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 Pharisees^G5330, cometh^G2064^(G5736) thither^G1563 with^G3326 lanterns^G5322 and^G2532 torches^G2985 and^G2532 weapons^G3696.

⁴ Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went out and said to them, “Who are you looking for?”

KJVJesus^G2424 therefore^G3767, knowing^G1492^(G5761) all things^G3956 that should come^G2064^(G5740) upon^G1909 him^G846, went forth^G1831^(G5631), and said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Whom^G5101 seek ye^G2212^(G5719)?

⁵ They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.

KJVThey answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, Jesus^G2424 of Nazareth^G3480. Jesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) he. And^G1161 Judas^G2455 also^G2532, which^G3588 betrayed^G3860^(G5723) him^G846, stood^G2476^(G5715) with^G3326 them^G846.

⁶ When therefore he said to them, “I am he,” they went backward and fell to the ground.

KJVAs soon^G5613 then^G3767 as he had said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846,^G3754 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) he, they went^G565^(G5627) backward^G1519^G3694, and^G2532 fell^G4098^(G5627) to the ground^G5476.

⁷ Again therefore he asked them, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”

KJVThen^G3767 asked he^G1905^(G5656) them^G846 again^G3825, Whom^G5101 seek ye^G2212^(G5719)? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Jesus^G2424 of Nazareth^G3480.

⁸ Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662), I have told^G2036^(G5627) you^G5213 that^G3754 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) he: if^G1487 therefore^G3767 ye seek^G2212^(G5719) me^G1691, let^G863^(G5628) these^G5128 go their way^G5217^(G5721):

⁹ that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, “Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none.”

KJVThat^G2443 the saying^G3056 might be fulfilled^G4137^(G5686), which^G3739 he spake^G2036^(G5627),^G3754 Of^G1537 them^G846 which^G3739 thou gavest^G1325^(G5758) me^G3427 have I^G3756 lost^G622^(G5656) none^G3762.

¹⁰ 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.

KJVThen^G3767 Simon^G4613 Peter^G4074 having^G2192^(G5723) a sword^G3162 drew^G1670^(G5656) it^G846, and^G2532 smote^G3817^(G5656) the high priest's^G749 servant^G1401, and^G2532 cut off^G609^(G5656) his^G846 right^G1188 ear^G5621.^G1161 The servant's^G1401 name^G3686 was^G2258^(G5713) Malchus^G3124.

¹¹ 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?”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 unto Peter^G4074, Put up^G906^(G5628) thy^G4675 sword^G3162 into^G1519 the sheath^G2336: the cup^G4221 which^G3739 my Father^G3962 hath given^G1325^(G5758) me^G3427, shall I^G4095 not^G3378 drink^G4095^(G5632) it^G846?

¹² So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and bound him,

KJVThen^G3767 the band^G4686 and^G2532 the captain^G5506 and^G2532 officers^G5257 of the Jews^G2453 took^G4815^(G5627) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 bound^G1210^(G5656) him^G846,

¹³ and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.

KJVAnd^G2532 led^G520 him^G846 away^G520^(G5627) to^G4314 Annas^G452 first^G4412; for^G1063 he was^G2258^(G5713) father in law^G3995 to Caiaphas^G2533, which^G3739 was^G2258^(G5713) the high priest^G749 that same^G1565 year^G1763.

¹⁴ Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should perish for the people.

KJVNow^G1161 Caiaphas^G2533 was he^G2258^(G5713), which^G3588 gave counsel^G4823^(G5660) to the Jews^G2453, that^G3754 it was expedient^G4851^(G5719) that one^G1520 man^G444 should die^G622^(G5641) for^G5228 the people^G2992.

¹⁵ 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;

KJVAnd^G1161 Simon^G4613 Peter^G4074 followed^G190^(G5707) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 so did another^G243 disciple^G3101:^G1161 that^G1565 disciple^G3101 was^G2258^(G5713) known^G1110 unto the high priest^G749, and^G2532 went in with^G4897^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 into^G1519 the palace^G833 of the high priest^G749.

¹⁶ 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.

KJVBut^G1161 Peter^G4074 stood^G2476^(G5715) at^G4314 the door^G2374 without^G1854. Then^G3767 went out^G1831^(G5627) that other^G243 disciple^G3101, which^G3739 was^G2258^(G5713) known^G1110 unto the high priest^G749, and^G2532 spake^G2036^(G5627) unto her that kept the door^G2377, and^G2532 brought in^G1521^(G5627) Peter^G4074.

¹⁷ Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, “Are you also one of this man’s disciples?” He said, “I am not.”

KJVThen^G3767 saith^G3004^(G5719) the damsel^G3814 that kept the door^G2377 unto Peter^G4074, Art^G1488^(G5748) not^G3361 thou^G4771 also^G2532 one of^G1537 this^G5127 man's^G444 disciples^G3101? He^G1565 saith^G3004^(G5719), I am^G1510^(G5748) not^G3756.

¹⁸ 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.

KJVAnd^G1161 the servants^G1401 and^G2532 officers^G5257 stood there^G2476^(G5715), who had made^G4160^(G5761) a fire of coals^G439; for^G3754 it was^G2258^(G5713) cold^G5592: and^G2532 they warmed themselves^G2328^(G5711): and^G1161 Peter^G4074 stood^G2258^(G5713)^G2476^(G5761) with^G3326 them^G846, and^G2532 warmed himself^G2328^(G5734).

¹⁹ The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.

KJVThe high priest^G749 then^G3767 asked^G2065^(G5656) Jesus^G2424 of^G4012 his^G846 disciples^G3101, and^G2532 of^G4012 his^G846 doctrine^G1322.

²⁰ 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.

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, I^G1473 spake^G2980^(G5656) openly^G3954 to the world^G2889; I^G1473 ever^G3842 taught^G1321^(G5656) in^G1722 the synagogue^G4864, and^G2532 in^G1722 the temple^G2411, whither^G3699 the Jews^G2453 always^G3842 resort^G4905^(G5736); and^G2532 in^G1722 secret^G2927 have I said^G2980^(G5656) nothing^G3762.

²¹ Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them. Behold, they know the things which I said.”

KJVWhy^G5101 askest thou^G1905^(G5719) me^G3165? ask^G1905^(G5657) them which heard me^G191^(G5756), what^G5101 I have said^G2980^(G5656) unto them^G846: behold^G2396, they^G3778 know^G1492^(G5758) what^G3739 I^G1473 said^G2036^(G5627).

²² 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?”

KJVAnd^G1161 when he^G846 had^G2036 thus^G5023 spoken^G2036^(G5631), one^G1520 of the officers^G5257 which stood by^G3936^(G5761) struck^G1325^G4475 Jesus^G2424 with the palm of his hand^G1325^(G5656)^G4475, saying^G2036^(G5631), Answerest thou^G611^(G5736) the high priest^G749 so^G3779?

²³ Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, If^G1487 I have spoken^G2980^(G5656) evil^G2560, bear witness^G3140^(G5657) of^G4012 the evil^G2556: but^G1161 if^G1487 well^G2573, why^G5101 smitest^G1194^(G5719) thou me^G3165?

²⁴ Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.

KJVNow Annas^G452 had sent^G649^(G5656) him^G846 bound^G1210^(G5772) unto^G4314 Caiaphas^G2533 the high priest^G749.

²⁵ 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.”

KJVAnd^G1161 Simon^G4613 Peter^G4074 stood^G2258^(G5713)^G2476^(G5761) and^G2532 warmed himself^G2328^(G5734). They said^G2036^(G5627) therefore^G3767 unto him^G846, Art^G1488^(G5748) not^G3361 thou^G4771 also^G2532 one of^G1537 his^G846 disciples^G3101? He^G1565 denied^G720^(G5662) it, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), I am^G1510^(G5748) not^G3756.

²⁶ 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?”

KJVOne^G1520 of^G1537 the servants^G1401 of the high priest^G749, being^G5607^(G5752) his kinsman^G4773 whose^G3739 ear^G5621 Peter^G4074 cut off^G609^(G5656), saith^G3004^(G5719), Did^G1492 not^G3756 I^G1473 see^G1492^(G5627) thee^G4571 in^G1722 the garden^G2779 with^G3326 him^G846?

²⁷ Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.

KJVPeter^G4074 then^G3767 denied^G720^(G5662) again^G3825: and^G2532 immediately^G2112 the cock^G220 crew^G5455^(G5656).

²⁸ 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.

KJVThen^G3767 led they^G71^(G5719) Jesus^G2424 from^G575 Caiaphas^G2533 unto^G1519 the hall of judgment^G4232: and^G1161 it was^G2258^(G5713) early^G4405; and^G2532 they themselves^G846 went^G1525^(G5627) not^G3756 into^G1519 the judgment hall^G4232, lest^G3363 they should be defiled^G3392^(G5686); but^G235 that^G2443 they might eat^G5315^(G5632) the passover^G3957.

²⁹ Pilate therefore went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?”

KJVPilate^G4091 then^G3767 went out^G1831^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), What^G5101 accusation^G2724 bring ye^G5342^(G5719) against^G2596 this^G5127 man^G444?

³⁰ They answered him, “If this man weren’t an evildoer, we wouldn’t have delivered him up to you.”

KJVThey answered^G611^(G5662) and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, If^G1508 he^G3778 were^G2258^(G5713) not^G1508 a malefactor^G2555, we would^G302 not^G3756 have delivered^G3860 him^G846 up^G3860^(G5656) unto thee^G4671.

³¹ 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,”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Pilate^G4091 unto them^G846, Take^G2983^(G5628) ye^G5210 him^G846, and^G2532 judge^G2919^(G5657) him^G846 according^G2596 to your^G5216 law^G3551. The Jews^G2453 therefore^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, It is^G1832 not^G3756 lawful^G1832^(G5748) for us^G2254 to put^G615 any man^G3762 to death^G615^(G5658):

³² that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.

KJVThat^G2443 the saying^G3056 of Jesus^G2424 might be fulfilled^G4137^(G5686), which^G3739 he spake^G2036^(G5627), signifying^G4591^(G5723) what^G4169 death^G2288 he should^G3195^(G5707) die^G599^(G5721).

³³ Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”

KJVThen^G3767 Pilate^G4091 entered^G1525^(G5627) into^G1519 the judgment hall^G4232 again^G3825, and^G2532 called^G5455^(G5656) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Art^G1488^(G5748) thou^G4771 the King^G935 of the Jews^G2453?

³⁴ Jesus answered him, “Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, Sayest^G3004^(G5719) thou^G4771 this thing^G5124 of^G575 thyself^G1438, or^G2228 did others^G243 tell it^G2036^(G5627) thee^G4671 of^G4012 me^G1700?

³⁵ Pilate answered, “I’m not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you to me. What have you done?”

KJVPilate^G4091 answered^G611^(G5662),^G3385 Am^G1510^(G5748) I^G1473 a Jew^G2453? Thine own^G4674 nation^G1484 and^G2532 the chief priests^G749 have delivered^G3860^(G5656) thee^G4571 unto me^G1698: what^G5101 hast thou done^G4160^(G5656)?

³⁶ 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.”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662), My^G1699 kingdom^G932 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 of^G1537 this^G5127 world^G2889: if^G1487 my^G1699 kingdom^G932 were^G2258^(G5713) of^G1537 this^G5127 world^G2889, then would^G302 my^G1699 servants^G5257 fight^G75^(G5711), that^G3363 I should^G3860 not^G3363 be delivered^G3860^(G5686) to the Jews^G2453: but^G1161 now^G3568 is^G2076^(G5748) my^G1699 kingdom^G932 not^G3756 from hence^G1782.

³⁷ 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.”

KJVPilate^G4091 therefore^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Art^G1488^(G5748) thou^G4771 a king^G935 then^G3766? Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662), Thou^G4771 sayest^G3004^(G5719) that^G3754 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) a king^G935. To^G1519 this^G5124 end was^G1080 I^G1473 born^G1080^(G5769), and^G2532 for^G1519 this^G5124 cause came I^G2064^(G5754) into^G1519 the world^G2889, that^G2443 I should bear witness^G3140^(G5661) unto the truth^G225. Every one^G3956 that is^G5607^(G5752) of^G1537 the truth^G225 heareth^G191^(G5719) my^G3450 voice^G5456.

³⁸ 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.

KJVPilate^G4091 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, What^G5101 is^G2076^(G5748) truth^G225? And^G2532 when he had said^G2036^(G5631) this^G5124, he went out^G1831^(G5627) again^G3825 unto^G4314 the Jews^G2453, and^G2532 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, I^G1473 find^G2147^(G5719) in^G1722 him^G846 no^G3762 fault^G156 at all.

³⁹ 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?”

KJVBut^G1161 ye^G5213 have^G2076^(G5748) a custom^G4914, that^G2443 I should release^G630^(G5661) unto you^G5213 one^G1520 at^G1722 the passover^G3957: will ye^G1014^(G5736) therefore^G3767 that I release^G630^(G5661) unto you^G5213 the King^G935 of the Jews^G2453?

⁴⁰ Then they all shouted again, saying, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.

KJVThen^G3767 cried they^G2905^(G5656) all^G3956 again^G3825, saying^G3004^(G5723), Not^G3361 this man^G5126, but^G235 Barabbas^G912. Now^G1161 Barabbas^G912 was^G2258^(G5713) a robber^G3027.
