1 ب َعدَ أنْ قالَ يَسوعَ هذا، خَرَجَ هوَ وتَلاميذُهُ وعَبَرَ وادِي قَدْرونَ. وكانَ هُناكَ حَقلَ زَيتونٍ، فَدَخَلَهُ هوَ وتلامِيذُهُ.

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

2 و َكانَ يَهُوذا الَّذي خانَهُ يَعرِفُ المكانَ أيضاً، فقد كانَ يَسوعَ يَجتَمِعُ كَثيراً معَ تَلاميذهِ هُناكَ.

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

3 ف َأخَذَ يَهُوذا إلى ذلكَ المَكانِ عَدَداً مِنَ الجُنودِ الرُّومانِ وحُرّاسِ الهيكَلِ، كانَ قدْ أرسلَهُمْ كِبارُ الكَهَنةِ وَالفِرِّيسِيُّونَ. وكانوا يَحمِلونَ مَصابيحَ ومَشاعِلَ وَأسلِحَةً.

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

4 و كانَ يَسوعُ يَعلَمُ كُلَّ ما سَيَحدُثُ لَهُ. فَتَقَدَّمَ وقالَ لَهُمْ: «عَمَّنْ تَبحَثُونَ؟» أجابوهُ: «عنْ يَسوعَ النّاصِريِّ.» فَقالَ لهُمْ: «أنا هوَ!»

So Jesus, knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, went forth and said to them, “ Whom do you seek?”

5 و كانَ يَهوذا الَّذي خانَ يَسوعَ واقِفاً هُناكَ مَعَهُمْ.»

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

6 ف لمّا قالَ يَسوعُ: «أنا هوَ،» تَراجَعُوا وسَقَطوا على الأرْضِ.

So when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

7 ف َسألَهُمْ يَسوعُ ثانيَةً: «عَمَّنْ تَبْحَثُونَ؟» فَقالوا: «عنْ يَسوعَ الناصِرِيِّ.»

Therefore He again asked them, “ Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus the Nazarene.”

8 ف َأجابَ يَسوعُ: «قُلْتُ لَكُمْ إنِّي هوَ. فَما دُمتُمْ تُرِيدونَني أنا، دَعوا هؤلاءِ الرِّجالَ وَشأنَهُم.»

Jesus answered, “I told you that I am He; so if you seek Me, let these go their way,”

9 ق الَ هذا لكي يَتَحَقَّقَ ما سَبَقَ أنْ قالَهُ: «لَمْ أفقِدْ أحَداً مِنْ أولئك الَّذين وهَبْتُهمْ لي.»

to fulfill the word which He spoke, “ Of those whom You have given Me I lost not one.”

10 و كانَ معَ سِمعانَ بُطْرُسَ سَيفٌ، فَاسْتَلَّهُ وضَرَبَ بهِ خادِمَ رَئيسِ الكَهَنَةِ، فَقَطَعَ أُذُنَهُ اليُمنى. وكانَ اسْمُ الخادِمِ مَلْخُسَ.

Simon Peter then, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s slave, and cut off his right ear; and the slave’s name was Malchus.

11 ف َقالَ يَسوعُ لِبُطْرُسَ: «أرْجِعْ سَيفَكَ إلى غِمْدِهِ. أتُريدُني أنْ لا أشرَبَ كأسَ الآلامِ الَّتي أعطاها الآبُ لي؟»

So Jesus said to Peter, “Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given Me, shall I not drink it?” Jesus before the Priests

12 ث ُمَّ قَبَضَ الجُنُودُ وَقائِدُهُمْ وَحُرّاسُ الهَيْكَلِ عَلَى يَسُوعَ وَقَيَّدُوهُ،

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

13 و َأخَذُوهُ إلَى حَنّانَ أوَّلاً. لِأنَّ حَنّانَ هُوَ حَمُو قَيافا رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ فِي تِلكَ السَّنَةِ.

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

14 و َقَيافا هُوَ الَّذِي كانَ قَدْ نَصَحَ قادَةَ اليَهُودِ بأنَّهُ مِنَ الأفضَلِ أنْ يَمُوتَ رَجُلٌ واحِدٌ عَنِ الشَّعبِ. بُطرُسُ يُنكِرُ يَسُوع

Now Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it was expedient for one man to die on behalf of the people.

15 و َكانَ سِمعانُ بُطرُسُ وَتِلمِيْذٌ آخَرُ يَتبَعانِ يَسُوعَ. وَكانَ هَذا التِّلمِيْذُ الآخَرُ مَعرُوفاً لَدَىْ رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ فَدَخَلَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ إلَى فِناءِ دارِ رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ.

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

16 أ مّا بُطرُسُ فَبَقِيَ خارِجاً قُربَ البَوّابَةِ. فَخَرَجَ التِّلمِيْذُ الآخَرُ المَعرُوفُ لَدَى رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ وَكَلَّمَ الفَتاةَ المَسؤُولَةَ عَنِ البَوّابَةِ، وَأدخَلَ بُطرُسَ مَعَهُ.

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.

17 ف َقالَتِ الفَتاةُ لِبُطرُسَ: «ألَسْتَ أنتَ أيضاً مِنْ أتباعِ هَذا الرَّجُلِ؟» فَقالَ بُطرُسُ: «لا، لَستُ كَذَلِكَ!»

Then the slave-girl who kept the door said to Peter, “ You are not also one of this man’s disciples, are you?” He said, “I am not.”

18 و َكانَ الخُدّامُ وَالحُرّاسُ قَدْ أشعَلُوا ناراً وَوَقَفُوا حَولَها يَتَدَفَّأُونَ، لِأنَّ الطَّقسَ كانَ بارِداً. وَكانَ بُطرُسُ واقِفاَ يَتَدَفَّأُ مَعَهُمْ. حَنّانُ يَستَجوِبُ يَسُوع

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.

19 ف َسَألَ رَئِيْسُ الكَهَنَةِ يَسُوعَ عَنْ تَلامِيْذِهِ وَعَنْ تَعلِيْمِهِ.

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

20 ف َأجابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «كُنتُ أُكَلِّمُ الجَمِيعَ عَلَناً، وَعَلَّمتُ دائِماً فِي المَجامِعِ وَفِي ساحَةِ الهَيْكَلِ حَيثُ يَجتَمِعُ كُلُّ اليَهُودِ. وَلَمْ أقُلْ شَيْئاً فِي الخَفاءِ.

Jesus answered him, “I have spoken openly to the world; I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and I spoke nothing in secret.

21 ف َلِماذا تَسألُنِي؟ اسألِ الَّذِيْنَ سَمِعُوا ما قُلْتُهُ لَهُمْ، فَهُمْ يَعرِفُونَ بِالتَّأْكِيْدِ ما كُنتُ أقُولُهُ!»

Why do you question Me? Question those who have heard what I spoke to them; they know what I said.”

22 ف َلَمّا قالَ هَذا، صَفَعَهُ واحِدٌ مِنَ الحُرّاسِ الواقِفِيْنَ هُناكَ وَقالَ لَهُ: «كَيفَ تَجرُؤُ عَلَى مُخاطَبَةِ رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ بِهَذِهِ الطَّرِيْقَةِ؟»

When He had said this, one of the officers standing nearby struck Jesus, saying, “Is that the way You answer the high priest?”

23 ف َأجابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «إنْ كُنتُ قَدْ أخطَأْتُ فِي شَيْءٍ قُلْتُهُ، فَبَيِّنِ الخَطَأ أمامَ الجَمِيعِ. أمّا إنْ أصَبْتُ، فَلِماذا تَضْرِبُنِي؟»

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

24 ب َعدَ ذَلِكَ، أرسَلَهُ حَنّانُ مُقَيَّداً إلَى قَيافا رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ الحالِيِّ. بُطرُسْ يُنكِرُ يَسُوعُ ثانِيَة

So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest. Peter’s Denial of Jesus

25 و َكانَ سِمعانُ بُطرُسُ ما يَزالُ واقِفاً يَتَدَفَّأُ، فَسَألَهُ الواقِفُونَ مَعَهُ: «ألَسْتَ أنتَ أيضاً مِنْ أتباعِهِ؟» لَكِنَّهُ أنكَرَ وَقالَ: «لا، لَسْتُ كَذَلِكَ!»

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

26 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ إحدَى خادِماتِ رَئِيْسِ الكَهَنَةِ، وَهِيَ مِنْ أقارِبِ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي قَطَعَ بُطرُسُ أُذُنَهُ، فَقالَتْ لِبُطرُسَ: «ألَمْ أرَكَ مَعَهُ فِي الحَقلِ؟»

One of the slaves of the high priest, being a relative of the one whose ear Peter cut off, said, “Did I not see you in the garden with Him?”

27 ف َأنكَرَ بُطرُسُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى، وَصاحَ الدِّيْكُ بَعدَ ذَلِكَ فَوراً. بِيلاطُسُ يَستَجوِبُ يَسُوع

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

28 و َفِي الصَّباحِ الباكِرِ ساقُوا يَسُوعَ مِنْ بَيتِ قَيافا إلَى قَصْرِ الوالِي. لَكِنَّ اليَهُودَ لَمْ يَشاءُوا أنْ يَدخُلُوا دارَ الوالِي، لِأنَّهُمْ إنْ دَخَلُوا سَيَتَنَجَّسُونَ وَلَنْ يَستَطِيْعُوا أنْ يَأْكُلُوا طَعامَ الفِصْحِ.

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

29 ف َخَرَجَ بِيلاطُسُ إلَيْهِمْ وَقالَ: «بمِاذا تَتَّهِمونَ هذا الإنسانَ؟»

Therefore Pilate went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this Man?”

30 ف أجابوهُ: «لو لَمْ يَكُنْ هذا مُجرِماً، لما سلَّمْناهُ إليكَ!»

They answered and said to him, “If this Man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him to you.”

31 ف قالَ لهم بيلاطُسُ: «خُذُوهُ أنتُمْ، وَاحكُمُوا عَلَيْهِ حَسَبَ شَرِيْعَتِكُمْ.» فَقالَ لَهُ اليَهُودُ: «غَيْرُ مَسمُوحٍ لَنا بَأنْ نَقتُلَ أحَداً.»

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,”

32 ح َدَثَ هَذا لِكَي يَتَحَقَّقَ قَولُ يَسُوعَ حِيْنَ أشارَ إلَى المِيْتَةِ الَّتِي سَيَمُوتُها.

to fulfill the word of Jesus which He spoke, signifying by what kind of death He was about to die.

33 ف َرَجِعَ بِيلاطُسُ إلَى داخِلِ قَصْرِهِ. ثُمَّ استَدعَى يَسُوعَ وَقالَ لَهُ: «أأنتَ مَلِكُ اليَهُودِ؟»

Therefore Pilate entered again into the Praetorium, and summoned Jesus and said to Him, “ Are You the King of the Jews?”

34 أ جابَ يَسُوعُ: «أمِنْ عِندِكَ تَقُولُ هَذا، أمْ أنَّ آخَرِيْنَ أخبَرُوكَ عَنِّي؟»

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

35 أ جابَ بِيلاطُسُ: «أتَحسَبُنِي يَهُودِيّاً؟ شَعبُكَ وَكِبارُ الكَهَنَةِ هُمُ الَّذِيْنَ سَلَّمُوكَ إلِيَّ، فَماذا فَعَلْتَ؟»

Pilate answered, “I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered You to me; what have You done?”

36 أ جابَ يَسُوعُ: «مَملَكَتِي لا تَنتَمِي إلَى هَذا العالَمِ. لَو كانَتْ مَملَكتِي تَنتَمِي إلَى هَذا العالَمِ، لَكانَ أتباعِي يُحارِبُونَ لِيَمنَعُوا تَسلِيْمِي إلَى اليَهُودِ. لَكِنَّ مَملَكَتِي لَيْسَتْ مِنْ هُنا.»

Jesus answered, “ My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then 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.”

37 ف َقالَ لَهُ بِيلاطُسُ: «فَأنتَ مَلِكٌ إذَنْ؟» فَأجابَ يَسُوعُ: «أنتَ تَقُولُ إنِّي مَلِكٌ. لَقَدْ وُلِدتُ مِنْ أجلِ هَدَفٍ، وَجِئْتُ إلَى هَذا العالَمِ مِنْ أجلِ هَدَفٍ هُوَ أنْ أشهَدَ لِلحَقِّ. فَكُلُّ مَنْ هُوَ إلَى جانِبِ الحَقِّ، يُصغِي إلَى صَوتِي.»

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

38 ف َسَألَهُ بِيلاطُسُ: «وَما هُوَ الحَقُّ؟» وَلَمّا قالَ هَذا، خَرَجَ ثانِيَةً إلَى اليَهُودِ وَقالَ لَهُمْ: «لا أجِدُ ما أتَّهِمُهُ بِهِ!

Pilate said to Him, “What is truth?” And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews and said to them, “ I find no guilt in Him.

39 و َلَقَدِ اعتَدتُمْ أنْ أُخلِيَ لَكُمْ سَبِيلَ أحَدِ السُّجَناءِ فِي عِيْدِ الفِصْحِ. فَهَلْ تُرِيْدُونَ أنْ أُخلِيَ سَبِيلَ مَلِكِ اليَهُودِ؟»

But you have a custom that I release someone for you at the Passover; do you wish then that I release for you the King of the Jews?”

40 ف َصَرَخُوا ثانِيَةً: «لا لَيْسَ هَذا! بَلْ أخلِ سَبِيلَ باراباسَ!» وَكانَ باراباسُ مُجرِماً!

So they cried out again, saying, “ Not this Man, but Barabbas.” Now Barabbas was a robber.
