Evangelium secundum Ioannem, 18

1. hæc cum dixisset Jesus egressus est cum discipulis suis trans torrentem Cedron ubi erat hortus in quem introivit ipse et discipuli ejus

1. When Jesus had said these things, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where there was a garden, into which he entered with his disciples.

2. sciebat autem et Judas qui tradebat eum ipsum locum quia frequenter Jesus convenerat illuc cum discipulis suis

2. And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place; because Jesus had often resorted thither together with his disciples.

3. Judas ergo cum accepisset cohortem et a pontificibus et Pharisæis ministros venit illuc cum lanternis et facibus et armis

3. Judas therefore having received a band of soldiers and servants from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.

4. Jesus itaque sciens omnia quæ ventura erant super eum processit et dicit eis quem quæritis

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

5. responderunt ei Jesum Nazarenum dicit eis Jesus ego sum stabat autem et Judas qui tradebat eum cum ipsis

5. They answered him: Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them: I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.

6. ut ergo dixit eis ego sum abierunt retrorsum et ceciderunt in terram

6. As soon therefore as he had said to them: I am he; they went backward, and fell to the ground.

7. iterum ergo eos interrogavit quem quæritis illi autem dixerunt Jesum Nazarenum

7. Again therefore he asked them: Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

8. respondit Jesus dixi vobis quia ego sum si ergo me quæritis sinite hos abire

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

9. ut impleretur sermo quem dixit quia quos dedisti mihi non perdidi ex ipsis quemquam

9. That the word might be fulfilled which he said: Of them whom thou hast given me, I have not lost any one.

10. Simon ergo Petrus habens gladium eduxit eum et percussit pontificis servum et abscidit ejus auriculam dextram erat autem nomen servo Malchus

10. Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the name of the servant was Malchus.

11. dixit ergo Jesus Petro mitte gladium in vaginam calicem quem dedit mihi Pater non bibam illum

11. Jesus therefore said to Peter: Put up thy sword into the scabbard. The chalice which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

12. cohors ergo et tribunus et ministri Judæorum conprehenderunt Jesum et ligaverunt eum

12. Then the band and the tribune, and the servants of the Jews, took Jesus, and bound him:

13. et adduxerunt eum ad Annam primum erat enim socer Cajaphæ qui erat pontifex anni illius

13. And they led him away to Annas first, for he was father in law to Caiphas, who was the high priest of that year.

14. erat autem Cajaphas qui consilium dederat Judæis quia expedit unum hominem mori pro populo

14. Now Caiphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews: That it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

15. sequebatur autem Jesum Simon Petrus et alius discipulus discipulus autem ille erat notus pontifici et introivit cum Jesu in atrium pontificis

15. And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.

16. Petrus autem stabat ad ostium foris exivit ergo discipulus alius qui erat notus pontifici et dixit ostiariæ et introduxit Petrum

16. But Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out, and spoke to the portress, and brought in Peter.

17. dicit ergo Petro ancilla ostiaria numquid et tu ex discipulis es hominis istius dicit ille non sum

17. The maid therefore that was portress, saith to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith: I am not.

18. stabant autem servi et ministri ad prunas quia frigus erat et calefiebant erat autem cum eis et Petrus stans et calefaciens se

18. Now the servants and ministers stood at a fire of coals, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And with them was Peter also, standing, and warming himself.

19. pontifex ergo interrogavit Jesum de discipulis suis et de doctrina ejus

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

20. respondit ei Jesus ego palam locutus sum mundo ego semper docui in synagoga et in templo quo omnes Judæi conveniunt et in occulto locutus sum nihil

20. Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world: I have always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither all the Jews resort; and in secret I have spoken nothing.

21. quid me interrogas interroga eos qui audierunt quid locutus sum ipsis ecce hii sciunt quæ dixerim ego

21. Why asketh thou me? ask them who have heard what I have spoken unto them: behold they know what things I have said.

22. hæc autem cum dixisset unus adsistens ministrorum dedit alapam Jesu dicens sic respondes pontifici

22. And when he had said these things, one of the servants standing by, gave Jesus a blow, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so?

23. respondit ei Jesus si male locutus sum testimonium perhibe de malo si autem bene quid me cædis

23. Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, give testimony of the evil; but if well, why strikest thou me?

24. et misit eum Annas ligatum ad Cajaphan pontificem

24. And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas the high priest.

25. erat autem Simon Petrus stans et calefaciens se dixerunt ergo ei numquid et tu ex discipulis ejus es negavit ille et dixit non sum

25. And Simon Peter was standing, and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said: I am not.

26. dicit unus ex servis pontificis cognatus ejus cujus abscidit Petrus auriculam nonne ego te vidi in horto cum illo

26. One of the servants of the high priest (a kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off) saith to him: Did I not see thee in the garden with him?

27. iterum ergo negavit Petrus et statim gallus cantavit

27. Again therefore Peter denied; and immediately the cock crew.

28. adducunt ergo Jesum a Cajapha in prætorium erat autem mane et ipsi non introjerunt in prætorium ut non contaminarentur sed manducarent pascha

28. Then they led Jesus from Caiphas to the governor's hall. And it was morning; and they went not into the hall, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the pasch.

29. exivit ergo Pilatus ad eos foras et dixit quam accusationem adfertis adversus hominem hunc

29. Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation bring you against this man?

30. responderunt et dixerunt ei si non esset hic malefactor non tibi tradidissemus eum

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

31. dixit ergo eis Pilatus accipite eum vos et secundum legem vestram judicate eum dixerunt ergo ei Judæi nobis non licet interficere quemquam

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

32. ut sermo Jesu impleretur quem dixit significans qua esset morte moriturus

32. That the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he said, signifying what death he should die.

33. introivit ergo iterum in prætorium Pilatus et vocavit Jesum et dixit ei tu es rex Judæorum

33. Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

34. et respondit Jesus a temet ipso hoc dicis an alii tibi dixerunt de me

34. Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me?

35. respondit Pilatus numquid ego Judæus sum gens tua et pontifices tradiderunt te mihi quid fecisti

35. Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?

36. respondit Jesus regnum meum non est de mundo hoc si ex hoc mundo esset regnum meum ministri mei decertarent ut non traderer Judæis nunc autem meum regnum non est hinc

36. Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.

37. dixit itaque ei Pilatus ergo rex es tu respondit Jesus tu dicis quia rex sum ego ego in hoc natus sum et ad hoc veni in mundum ut testimonium perhibeam veritati omnis qui est ex veritate audit meam vocem

37. Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice.

38. dicit ei Pilatus quid est veritas et cum hoc dixisset iterum exivit ad Judæos et dicit eis ego nullam invenio in eo causam

38. Pilate saith to him: What is truth? And when he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them: I find no cause in him.

39. est autem consuetudo vobis ut unum dimittam vobis in pascha vultis ergo dimittam vobis regem Judæorum

39. But you have a custom that I should release one unto you at the pasch: will you, therefore, that I release unto you the king of the Jews?

40. clamaverunt rursum omnes dicentes non hunc sed Barabban erat autem Barabbas latro

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