Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 18

GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Αφου ειπε ταυτα ο Ιησους, εξηλθε μετα των μαθητων αυτου περαν του χειμαρρου των Κεδρων, οπου ητο κηπος, εις τον οποιον εισηλθεν αυτος και οι μαθηται αυτου.	1 When he had said this, Jesus went out with his disciples across the Kidron valley to where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.
2 Ηξευρε δε τον τοπον και Ιουδας ο παραδιδων αυτον? διοτι πολλακις συνηλθεν εκει ο Ιησους μετα των μαθητων αυτου.	2 Judas his betrayer also knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with his disciples.
3 Ο Ιουδας λοιπον, λαβων το ταγμα και εκ των αρχιερεων και Φαρισαιων υπηρετας, ερχεται εκει μετα φανων και λαμπαδων και οπλων.	3 So Judas got a band of soldiers and guards from the chief priests and the Pharisees and went there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
4 Ο δε Ιησους, εξευρων παντα τα ερχομενα επ' αυτον, εξηλθε και ειπε προς αυτους? Τινα ζητειτε;	4 Jesus, knowing everything that was going to happen to him, went out and said to them, "Whom are you looking for?"
5 Απεκριθησαν προς αυτον? Ιησουν τον Ναζωραιον. Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εγω ειμαι. Ιστατο δε μετ' αυτων και Ιουδας ο παραδιδων αυτον.	5 They answered him, "Jesus the Nazorean." He said to them, "I AM." Judas his betrayer was also with them.
6 Καθως λοιπον ειπε προς αυτους οτι εγω ειμαι, απεσυρθησαν εις τα οπισω και επεσον χαμαι.	6 When he said to them, "I AM," they turned away and fell to the ground.
7 Παλιν λοιπον ηρωτησεν αυτους? Τινα ζητειτε; Οι δε ειπον? Ιησουν τον Ναζωραιον.	7 So he again asked them, "Whom are you looking for?" They said, "Jesus the Nazorean."
8 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Σας ειπον οτι εγω ειμαι. Εαν λοιπον εμε ζητητε, αφησατε τουτους να υπαγωσι?	8 Jesus answered, "I told you that I AM. So if you are looking for me, let these men go."
9 δια να πληρωθη ο λογος, τον οποιον ειπεν, Οτι εξ εκεινων τους οποιους μοι εδωκας, δεν απωλεσα ουδενα.	9 This was to fulfill what he had said, "I have not lost any of those you gave me."
10 Τοτε ο Σιμων Πετρος εχων μαχαιραν εσυρεν αυτην και εκτυπησε τον δουλον του αρχιερεως και απεκοψεν αυτου το ωτιον το δεξιον? ητο δε το ονομα του δουλου Μαλχος.	10 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, struck the high priest's slave, and cut off his right ear. The slave's name was Malchus.
11 Ειπε λοιπον ο Ιησους προς τον Πετρον? Βαλε την μαχαιραν σου εις την θηκην? το ποτηριον, το οποιον μοι εδωκεν ο Πατηρ, δεν θελω πιει αυτο;	11 Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its scabbard. Shall I not drink the cup that the Father gave me?"
12 Το ταγμα λοιπον και ο χιλιαρχος και οι υπηρεται των Ιουδαιων συνελαβον τον Ιησουν και εδεσαν αυτον,	12 So the band of soldiers, the tribune, and the Jewish guards seized Jesus, bound him,
13 και εφεραν αυτον εις τον Ανναν πρωτον? διοτι ητο πενθερος του Καιαφα, οστις ητο αρχιερευς του ενιαυτου εκεινου.	13 and brought him to Annas first. He was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 Ητο δε ο Καιαφας ο συμβουλευσας τους Ιουδαιους οτι συμφερει να απολεσθη εις ανθρωπος υπερ του λαου.	14 It was Caiaphas who had counseled the Jews that it was better that one man should die rather than the people.
15 Ηκολουθει δε τον Ιησουν ο Σιμων Πετρος και ο αλλος μαθητης. Ο δε μαθητης εκεινος ητο γνωστος εις τον αρχιερεα και εισηλθε μετα του Ιησου εις την αυλην του αρχιερεως.	15 Simon Peter and another disciple followed Jesus. Now the other disciple was known to the high priest, and he entered the courtyard of the high priest with Jesus.
16 Ο δε Πετρος ιστατο εξω πλησιον της θυρας. Εξηλθε λοιπον ο μαθητης ο αλλος, οστις ητο γνωστος εις τον αρχιερεα, και ωμιλησεν εις την θυρωρον, και εισηγαγε τον Πετρον.	16 But Peter stood at the gate outside. So the other disciple, the acquaintance of the high priest, went out and spoke to the gatekeeper and brought Peter in.
17 Λεγει λοιπον η δουλη η θυρωρος προς τον Πετρον? Μηπως και συ εισαι εκ των μαθητων του ανθρωπου τουτου; Λεγει εκεινος? Δεν ειμαι.	17 Then the maid who was the gatekeeper said to Peter, "You are not one of this man's disciples, are you?" He said, "I am not."
18 Ισταντο δε οι δουλοι και οι υπηρεται, οιτινες ειχον καμει ανθρακιαν, διοτι ητο ψυχος, και εθερμαινοντο? και μετ' αυτων ιστατο ο Πετρος και εθερμαινετο.	18 Now the slaves and the guards were standing around a charcoal fire that they had made, because it was cold, and were warming themselves. Peter was also standing there keeping warm.
19 Ο αρχιερευς λοιπον ηρωτησε τον Ιησουν περι των μαθητων αυτου και περι της διδαχης αυτου.	19 The high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his doctrine.
20 Απεκριθη προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Εγω παρρησια ελαλησα εις τον κοσμον? εγω παντοτε εδιδαξα εν τη συναγωγη και εν τω ιερω, οπου οι Ιουδαιοι συνερχονται παντοτε, και εν κρυπτω δεν ελαλησα ουδεν.	20 Jesus answered him, "I have spoken publicly to the world. I have always taught in a synagogue or in the temple area where all the Jews gather, and in secret I have said nothing.
21 Τι με ερωτας; ερωτησον τους ακουσαντας, τι ελαλησα προς αυτους? ιδου, ουτοι εξευρουσιν οσα ειπον εγω.	21 Why ask me? Ask those who heard me what I said to them. They know what I said."
22 Οτε δε ειπε ταυτα, εις των υπηρετων ισταμενος πλησιον εδωκε ραπισμα εις τον Ιησουν, ειπων? Ουτως αποκρινεσαι προς τον αρχιερεα;	22 When he had said this, one of the temple guards standing there struck Jesus and said, "Is this the way you answer the high priest?"
23 Απεκριθη προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Εαν κακως ελαλησα, μαρτυρησον περι του κακου? εαν δε καλως, τι με δερεις;	23 Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, testify to the wrong; but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike me?"
24 Ειχε δε αποστειλει αυτον ο Αννας δεδεμενον προς Καιαφαν τον αρχιερεα.	24 Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
25 Ο δε Σιμων Πετρος ιστατο και εθερμαινετο? ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον? Μηπως και συ εκ των μαθητων αυτου εισαι; Ηρνηθη εκεινος και ειπε? Δεν ειμαι.	25 Now Simon Peter was standing there keeping warm. And they said to him, "You are not one of his disciples, are you?" He denied it and said, "I am not."
26 Λεγει εις εκ των δουλων του αρχιερεως, οστις ητο συγγενης εκεινου, του οποιου ο Πετρος απεκοψε το ωτιον? Δεν σε ειδον εγω εν τω κηπω μετ' αυτου;	26 One of the slaves of the high priest, a relative of the one whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Didn't I see you in the garden with him?"
27 Παλιν λοιπον ηρνηθη ο Πετρος, και ευθυς εφωναξεν ο αλεκτωρ.	27 Again Peter denied it. And immediately the cock crowed.
28 Φερουσι λοιπον τον Ιησουν απο του Καιαφα εις το πραιτωριον? ητο δε πρωι? και αυτοι δεν εισηλθον εις το πραιτωριον, δια να μη μιανθωσιν, αλλα δια να φαγωσι το πασχα.	28 Then they brought Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium. It was morning. And they themselves did not enter the praetorium, in order not to be defiled so that they could eat the Passover.
29 Εξηλθε λοιπον ο Πιλατος προς αυτους και ειπε? Τινα κατηγοριαν φερετε κατα του ανθρωπου τουτου;	29 So Pilate came out to them and said, "What charge do you bring (against) this man?"
30 Απεκριθησαν και ειπον προς αυτον? Εαν ουτος δεν ητο κακοποιος, δεν ηθελομεν σοι παραδωσει αυτον.	30 They answered and said to him, "If he were not a criminal, we would not have handed him over to you."
31 Ειπε λοιπον προς αυτους ο Πιλατος? Λαβετε αυτον σεις και κατα τον νομον σας κρινατε αυτον. Ειπον δε προς αυτον οι Ιουδαιοι? ημεις δεν εχομεν εξουσιαν να θανατωσωμεν ουδενα.	31 At this, Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law." The Jews answered him, "We do not have the right to execute anyone,"
32 Δια να πληρωθη ο λογος του Ιησου, τον οποιον ειπε, δεικνυων με ποιον θανατον εμελλε να αποθανη.	32 in order that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled that he said indicating the kind of death he would die.
33 Εισηλθε παλιν εις το πραιτωριον ο Πιλατος και εφωναξε τον Ιησουν και ειπε προς αυτον? Συ εισαι ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων;	33 So Pilate went back into the praetorium and summoned Jesus and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
34 Απεκριθη προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Αφ' εαυτου λεγεις συ τουτο, η αλλοι σοι ειπον περι εμου;	34 Jesus answered, "Do you say this on your own or have others told you about me?"
35 Απεκριθη ο Πιλατος? Μηπως εγω ειμαι Ιουδαιος; το εθνος το ιδικον σου και οι αρχιερεις σε παρεδωκαν εις εμε? τι εκαμες;	35 Pilate answered, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?"
36 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Η βασιλεια η εμη δεν ειναι εκ του κοσμου τουτου? εαν η βασιλεια η εμη ητο εκ του κοσμου τουτου, οι υπηρεται μου ηθελον αγωνιζεσθαι, δια να μη παραδωθω εις τους Ιουδαιους? τωρα δε η βασιλεια η εμη δεν ειναι εντευθεν.	36 Jesus answered, "My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my attendants (would) be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not here."
37 Και ο Πιλατος ειπε προς αυτον? Λοιπον βασιλευς εισαι συ; Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Συ λεγεις οτι βασιλευς ειμαι εγω. Εγω δια τουτο εγεννηθην και δια τουτο ηλθον εις τον κοσμον, δια να μαρτυρησω εις την αληθειαν. Πας οστις ειναι εκ της αληθειας ακουει την φωνην μου.	37 So Pilate said to him, "Then you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say I am a king. For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice."
38 Λεγει προς αυτον ο Πιλατος? Τι ειναι αληθεια; Και τουτο ειπων, παλιν εξηλθε προς τους Ιουδαιους και λεγει προς αυτους? Εγω δεν ευρισκω ουδεν εγκλημα εν αυτω?	38 Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" When he had said this, he again went out to the Jews and said to them, "I find no guilt in him.
39 ειναι δε συνηθεια εις εσας να σας απολυσω ενα εν τω πασχα? θελετε λοιπον να σας απολυσω τον βασιλεα των Ιουδαιων;	39 But you have a custom that I release one prisoner to you at Passover. Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"
40 Παλιν λοιπον εκραυγασαν παντες, λεγοντες? Μη τουτον, αλλα τον Βαραββαν. Ητο δε ο Βαραββας ληστης.	40 They cried out again, "Not this one but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a revolutionary.
