| 1 ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܢܦܩ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܕܪܓܠܬܐ ܕܩܕܪܘܢ ܐܬܪ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܓܢܬܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܥܠ ܗܘ ܘܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܀ | 1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples across the Kidron valley, where there was a garden, which he and his disciples entered. |
| 2 ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܡܫܠܡܢܐ ܠܕܘܟܬܐ ܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܤܓܝ ܙܒܢܐ ܟܢܫ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܀ | 2 Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with his disciples. |
| 3 ܗܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܕܒܪ ܐܤܦܝܪ ܘܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܒܪ ܕܚܫܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܬܡܢ ܥܡ ܢܦܛܪܐ ܘܠܡܦܝܕܐ ܘܙܝܢܐ ܀ | 3 So Judas, procuring a band of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, went there with lanterns and torches and weapons. |
| 4 ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܢܦܩ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀ | 4 Then Jesus, knowing all that was to befall him, came forward and said to them, "Whom do you seek?" |
| 5 ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܡܫܠܡܢܐ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܀ | 5 They answered him, "Jesus of Nazareth." Jesus said to them, "I am he." Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them. |
| 6 ܘܟܕ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܙܠܘ ܠܒܤܬܪܗܘܢ ܘܢܦܠܘ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܀ | 6 When he said to them, "I am he," they drew back and fell to the ground. |
| 7 ܬܘܒ ܫܐܠ ܐܢܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܡܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܀ | 7 Again he asked them, "Whom do you seek?" And they said, "Jesus of Nazareth." |
| 8 ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܢ ܠܝ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܒܘܩܘ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܐܙܠܝܢ ܀ | 8 Jesus answered, "I told you that I am he; so, if you seek me, let these men go." |
| 9 ܕܬܫܠܡ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܗܒܬ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܐܘܒܕܬ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܦܠܐ ܚܕ ܀ | 9 This was to fulfill the word which he had spoken, "Of those whom thou gavest me I lost not one." |
| 10 ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܤܦܤܪܐ ܘܫܡܛܗ ܘܡܚܝܗܝ ܠܥܒܕܗ ܕܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܫܩܠܗ ܐܕܢܗ ܕܝܡܝܢܐ ܫܡܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܒܕܐ ܡܠܟ ܀ | 10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's slave and cut off his right ear. The slave's name was Malchus. |
| 11 ܘܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܟܐܦܐ ܤܝܡ ܤܦܤܪܐ ܒܚܠܬܗ ܟܤܐ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܝ ܐܒܝ ܠܐ ܐܫܬܝܘܗܝ ܀ | 11 Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath; shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?" |
| 12 ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܤܦܝܪ ܘܟܠܝܪܟܐ ܘܕܚܫܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܚܕܘܗܝ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܤܪܘܗܝ ܀ | 12 So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and bound him. |
| 13 ܘܐܝܬܝܘܗܝ ܠܘܬ ܚܢܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܡܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܩܝܦܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܕܫܢܬܐ ܗܝ ܀ | 13 First they led him to Annas; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. |
| 14 ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܩܝܦܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܠܟ ܠܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܦܩܚ ܕܚܕ ܓܒܪܐ ܢܡܘܬ ܚܠܦ ܥܡܐ ܀ | 14 It was Caiaphas who had given counsel to the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people. |
| 15 ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܚܕ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܬܪܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܠܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܥܠ ܥܡ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܕܪܬܐ ܀ | 15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. As this disciple was known to the high priest, he entered the court of the high priest along with Jesus, |
| 16 ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܠܒܪ ܠܘܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܘܢܦܩ ܗܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܢܛܪܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܘܐܥܠܗ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܀ | 16 while Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the maid who kept the door, and brought Peter in. |
| 17 ܐܡܪܬ ܕܝܢ ܥܠܝܡܬܐ ܢܛܪܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢܬ ܕܗܢܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܀ | 17 The maid who kept the door said to Peter, "Are not you also one of this man's disciples?" He said, "I am not." |
| 18 ܘܩܝܡܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܒܕܐ ܘܕܚܫܐ ܘܤܝܡܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܢܘܪܐ ܕܢܫܚܢܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܩܪܝܫ ܗܘܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܘܫܚܢ ܀ | 18 Now the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves; Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself. |
| 19 ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܫܐܠܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܥܠ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܥܠ ܝܘܠܦܢܗ ܀ | 19 The high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. |
| 20 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܥܝܢ ܒܓܠܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡ ܥܡܐ ܘܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܐܠܦܬ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܘܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܡܬܟܢܫܝܢ ܘܡܕܡ ܒܛܘܫܝܐ ܠܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܀ | 20 Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together; I have said nothing secretly. |
| 21 ܡܢܐ ܡܫܐܠ ܐܢܬ ܠܝ ܫܐܠ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܡܢܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܗܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܡܪܬ ܀ | 21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me, what I said to them; they know what I said." |
| 22 ܘܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܕܚܫܐ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܡܚܝܗܝ ܥܠ ܦܟܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܟܢܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܬ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܠܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܀ | 22 When he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, "Is that how you answer the high priest?" |
| 23 ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢ ܒܝܫܐܝܬ ܡܠܠܬ ܐܤܗܕ ܥܠ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܘܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܦܝܪ ܠܡܢܐ ܡܚܝܬܢܝ ܀ | 23 Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, bear witness to the wrong; but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike me?" |
| 24 ܚܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܕܪ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܟܕ ܐܤܝܪ ܠܘܬ ܩܝܦܐ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܀ | 24 Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest. |
| 25 ܘܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܘܫܚܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢܬ ܘܗܘ ܟܦܪ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܀ | 25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, "Are not you also one of his disciples?" He denied it and said, "I am not." |
| 26 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܐܚܝܢܗ ܕܗܘ ܕܦܤܩ ܗܘܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܐܕܢܗ ܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܚܙܝܬܟ ܥܡܗ ܒܓܢܬܐ ܀ | 26 One of the servants of the high priest, a kinsman of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?" |
| 27 ܘܬܘܒ ܟܦܪ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܘܒܗ ܒܫܥܬܐ ܩܪܐ ܬܪܢܓܠܐ ܀ | 27 Peter again denied it; and at once the cock crowed. |
| 28 ܐܝܬܝܘܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܩܝܦܐ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܘܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܨܦܪܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܠܐ ܥܠܘ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܬܛܘܫܘܢ ܥܕ ܐܟܠܝܢ ܦܨܚܐ ܀ | 28 Then they led Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the praetorium. It was early. They themselves did not enter the praetorium, so that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover. |
| 29 ܢܦܩ ܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܒܪ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢܐ ܡܐܟܠ ܩܪܨܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܠ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܀ | 29 So Pilate went out to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?" |
| 30 ܥܢܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܠܘ ܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܠܟ ܡܫܠܡܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܠܗ ܀ | 30 They answered him, "If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have handed him over." |
| 31 ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܕܘܒܪܘܗܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܕܘܢܘܗܝ ܐܝܟ ܢܡܘܤܟܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܠܐ ܫܠܝܛ ܠܢ ܠܡܩܛܠ ܠܐܢܫ ܀ | 31 Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law." The Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put any man to death." |
| 32 ܕܬܫܠܡ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܟܕ ܡܘܕܥ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܡܘܬܐ ܥܬܝܕ ܕܢܡܘܬ ܀ | 32 This was to fulfill the word which Jesus had spoken to show by what death he was to die. |
| 33 ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܘܩܪܐ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܠܟܗܘܢ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀ | 33 Pilate entered the praetorium again and called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" |
| 34 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܢܦܫܟ ܐܡܪܬ ܗܕܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܟ ܥܠܝ ܀ | 34 Jesus answered, "Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?" |
| 35 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܡܐ ܐܢܐ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܢܐ ܒܢܝ ܥܡܟ ܗܘ ܘܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܐܫܠܡܘܟ ܠܝ ܡܢܐ ܥܒܕܬ ܀ | 35 Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me; what have you done?" |
| 36 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܠܟܘܬܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܢ ܗܢܐ ܥܠܡܐ ܐܠܘ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܗܘܬ ܗܢܐ ܡܠܟܘܬܝ ܡܬܟܬܫܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܫܡܫܢܝ ܕܠܐ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܠܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܟܐ ܀ | 36 Jesus answered, "My kingship is not of this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not from the world." |
| 37 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܡܕܝܢ ܡܠܟܐ ܐܢܬ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܬ ܐܡܪܬ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܕܐ ܝܠܝܕ ܐܢܐ ܘܠܗܕܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܕܐܤܗܕ ܥܠ ܫܪܪܐ ܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܫܪܪܐ ܫܡܥ ܩܠܝ ܀ | 37 Pilate said to him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Every one who is of the truth hears my voice." |
| 38 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܡܢܘ ܫܪܪܐ ܘܟܕ ܐܡܪ ܗܕܐ ܢܦܩ ܠܗ ܬܘܒ ܠܘܬ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܥܠܬܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܐ ܒܗ ܀ | 38 Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again, and told them, "I find no crime in him. |
| 39 ܥܝܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܚܕ ܐܫܪܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܦܨܚܐ ܨܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܐܫܪܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܗܢܐ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀ | 39 But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover; will you have me release for you the King of the Jews?" |
| 40 ܘܩܥܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܠܗܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܒܪ ܐܒܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܢܐ ܒܪ ܐܒܐ ܓܝܤܐ ܀ | 40 They cried out again, "Not this man, but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber. |
