John 18 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

1When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the

brook

Kidron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples.

2Now Judas also, who

⁎

Or, delivered him up

betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft-times resorted thither with his disciples.

3Judas then, having received the

⁎

Or, cohort

band of soldiers, and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.

4Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them, Whom seek ye?

5They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, who

⁎

Or, delivered him up

betrayed him, was standing with them.

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

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

8Jesus answered, I told you that I am he; if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:

9that the word might be fulfilled which he spake, Of those whom thou hast given me I lost not one.

10Simon Peter therefore having a sword drew it, and struck the high priest’s

servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the

servant’s name was Malchus.

11Jesus therefore said unto Peter, Put up the sword into the sheath: the cup which the Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

12So the

chief captain, and the officers of the Jews, seized Jesus and bound him,

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

14Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

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

16but Peter was standing at the door without. So the other disciple, who was known unto the high priest, went out and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

17The maid therefore that kept the door saith unto Peter, Art thou also one of this man’s disciples? He saith, I am not.

18Now the

servants and the officers were standing there, having made

a fire of coals; for it was cold; and they were warming themselves: and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.

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

20Jesus answered him, I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in

synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and in secret spake I nothing.

21Why askest thou me? ask them that have heard me, what I spake unto them: behold, these know the things which I said.

22And when he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus

with his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?

23Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?

24Annas therefore sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

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

26One of the

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

27Peter therefore denied again: and straightway the cock crew.

28They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the

⁎

Or, palace

Praetorium: and it was early; and they themselves entered not into the

⁎

Or, palace

Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.

29Pilate therefore went out unto them, and saith, What accusation bring ye against this man?

30They answered and said unto him, If this man were not an evil-doer, we should not have delivered him up unto thee.

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

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

33Pilate therefore entered again into the

⁎

Or, palace

Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?

34Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?

35Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?

36Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my

Or, officers: as in verses 3, 12, 18, 22.

servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

37Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered,

⁎

Or, Thou sayest it, because I am a king.

Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

38Pilate 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 no crime in him.

39But 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?

40They cried out therefore again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
