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 out with His disciples over the Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciples entered.

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

And Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place; for Jesus 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.

Then Judas, having received a detachment of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, 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!»

Jesus therefore, knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, “Whom are you seeking?”

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

They answered Him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am He. ” And Judas, who betrayed Him, also stood with them.

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

Now 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.»

Then He asked them again, “Whom are you seeking?” And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”

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

Jesus answered, “I have told you that I am He. Therefore, 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.»

that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, “Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none.”

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

Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’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 your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?” Before the High Priest

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

Then the detachment of troops and the captain 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 they led Him away to Annas first, for he was the 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 it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people. Peter Denies Jesus

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.

And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard 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 stood at the door outside. Then the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought Peter in.

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

Then the servant 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 servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself. Jesus Questioned by the High Priest

19 ف َسَألَ رَئِيْسُ الكَهَنَةِ يَسُوعَ عَنْ تَلامِيْذِهِ وَعَنْ تَعلِيْمِهِ.

The high priest then asked Jesus about His disciples and His doctrine.

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 spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews always meet, and in secret I have said nothing.

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

Why do you ask Me? Ask those who have heard Me what I said to them. Indeed 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؟»

And when He had said these things, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, “Do You answer the high priest like that?”

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 evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why do you strike Me?”

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

Then Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest. Peter Denies Twice More

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 stood and warmed himself. Therefore 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 servants of the high priest, a relative of him 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 again; and immediately a rooster crowed. In Pilate’s Court

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 to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves did not go into the Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.

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

Pilate then 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 He were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him up to you.”

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

Then Pilate said to them, “You take Him and judge Him according to your law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,”

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

that the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled which He spoke, signifying by what death He would die.

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

Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called 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 him, “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?”

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

Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have 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, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”

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.»

Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness 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 fault in Him at all. Taking the Place of Barabbas

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 should release someone to you at the Passover. Do you therefore want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”

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

Then they all cried again, saying, “Not this Man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
