1ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܢܦܩ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܕܪܓܠܬܐ ܕܩܕܪܘܢ ܐܬܪ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܓܢܬܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܥܠ ܗܘ ܘܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܀
1When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.
2ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܡܫܠܡܢܐ ܠܕܘܟܬܐ ܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܤܓܝ ܙܒܢܐ ܟܢܫ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܀
2Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
3ܗܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܕܒܪ ܐܤܦܝܪ ܘܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܒܪ ܕܚܫܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܬܡܢ ܥܡ ܢܦܛܪܐ ܘܠܡܦܝܕܐ ܘܙܝܢܐ ܀
3Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
4ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܢܦܩ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
4Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went forth, and said to them, “Who are you looking for?”
5ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܡܫܠܡܢܐ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܀
5They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
6ܘܟܕ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܙܠܘ ܠܒܤܬܪܗܘܢ ܘܢܦܠܘ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܀
6When therefore he said to them, “I am he,” they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7ܬܘܒ ܫܐܠ ܐܢܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܡܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܀
7Again therefore he asked them, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܢ ܠܝ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܒܘܩܘ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܐܙܠܝܢ ܀
8Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,”
9ܕܬܫܠܡ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܗܒܬ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܐܘܒܕܬ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܦܠܐ ܚܕ ܀
9that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, “Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none.” John 6:39
10ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܤܦܤܪܐ ܘܫܡܛܗ ܘܡܚܝܗܝ ܠܥܒܕܗ ܕܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܫܩܠܗ ܐܕܢܗ ܕܝܡܝܢܐ ܫܡܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܒܕܐ ܡܠܟ ܀
10Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
11ܘܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܟܐܦܐ ܤܝܡ ܤܦܤܪܐ ܒܚܠܬܗ ܟܤܐ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܝ ܐܒܝ ܠܐ ܐܫܬܝܘܗܝ ܀
11Jesus therefore said to Peter, “Put the sword into its sheath. The cup which the Father has given me, shall I not surely drink it?”
12ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܤܦܝܪ ܘܟܠܝܪܟܐ ܘܕܚܫܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܚܕܘܗܝ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܤܪܘܗܝ ܀
12So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jews, seized Jesus and bound him,
13ܘܐܝܬܝܘܗܝ ܠܘܬ ܚܢܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܡܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܩܝܦܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܕܫܢܬܐ ܗܝ ܀
13and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܩܝܦܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܠܟ ܠܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܦܩܚ ܕܚܕ ܓܒܪܐ ܢܡܘܬ ܚܠܦ ܥܡܐ ܀
14Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should perish for the people.
15ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܚܕ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܬܪܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܠܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܥܠ ܥܡ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܕܪܬܐ ܀
15Simon Peter followed Jesus, as did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest;
16ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܠܒܪ ܠܘܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܘܢܦܩ ܗܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܢܛܪܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܘܐܥܠܗ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܀
16but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought in Peter.
17ܐܡܪܬ ܕܝܢ ܥܠܝܡܬܐ ܢܛܪܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢܬ ܕܗܢܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܀
17Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, “Are you also one of this man’s disciples?” He said, “I am not.”
18ܘܩܝܡܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܒܕܐ ܘܕܚܫܐ ܘܤܝܡܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܢܘܪܐ ܕܢܫܚܢܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܩܪܝܫ ܗܘܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܘܫܚܢ ܀
18Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. They were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.
19ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܫܐܠܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܥܠ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܥܠ ܝܘܠܦܢܗ ܀
19The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his teaching.
20ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܥܝܢ ܒܓܠܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡ ܥܡܐ ܘܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܐܠܦܬ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܘܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܡܬܟܢܫܝܢ ܘܡܕܡ ܒܛܘܫܝܐ ܠܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܀
20Jesus answered him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where the Jews always meet. I said nothing in secret.
21ܡܢܐ 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. Behold, these know the things which I said.”
22ܘܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܕܚܫܐ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܡܚܝܗܝ ܥܠ ܦܟܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܟܢܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܬ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܠܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܀
22When he had said this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying, “Do you answer the high priest like that?”
23ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢ ܒܝܫܐܝܬ ܡܠܠܬ ܐܤܗܕ ܥܠ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܘܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܦܝܪ ܠܡܢܐ ܡܚܝܬܢܝ ܀
23Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?”
24ܚܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܕܪ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܟܕ ܐܤܝܪ ܠܘܬ ܩܝܦܐ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܀
24Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25ܘܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܘܫܚܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢܬ ܘܗܘ ܟܦܪ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܀
25Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, “You aren’t also one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it, and said, “I am not.”
26ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܐܚܝܢܗ ܕܗܘ ܕܦܤܩ ܗܘܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܐܕܢܗ ܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܚܙܝܬܟ ܥܡܗ ܒܓܢܬܐ ܀
26One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “Didn’t I see you in the garden with him?”
27ܘܬܘܒ ܟܦܪ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܘܒܗ ܒܫܥܬܐ ܩܪܐ ܬܪܢܓܠܐ ܀
27Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
28ܐܝܬܝܘܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܩܝܦܐ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܘܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܨܦܪܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܠܐ ܥܠܘ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܬܛܘܫܘܢ ܥܕ ܐܟܠܝܢ ܦܨܚܐ ܀
28They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves didn’t enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.
29ܢܦܩ ܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܒܪ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢܐ ܡܐܟܠ ܩܪܨܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܠ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܀
29Pilate therefore went out to them, and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?”
30ܥܢܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܠܘ ܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܠܟ ܡܫܠܡܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܠܗ ܀
30They answered him, “If this man weren’t an evildoer, we wouldn’t have delivered him up to you.”
31ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܕܘܒܪܘܗܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܕܘܢܘܗܝ ܐܝܟ ܢܡܘܤܟܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܠܐ ܫܠܝܛ ܠܢ ܠܡܩܛܠ ܠܐܢܫ ܀
31Pilate therefore said to them, “Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,”
32ܕܬܫܠܡ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܟܕ ܡܘܕܥ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܡܘܬܐ ܥܬܝܕ ܕܢܡܘܬ ܀
32that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
33ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܘܩܪܐ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܠܟܗܘܢ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀
33Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”
34ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܢܦܫܟ ܐܡܪܬ ܗܕܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܟ ܥܠܝ ܀
34Jesus answered him, “Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?”
35ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܡܐ ܐܢܐ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܢܐ ܒܢܝ ܥܡܟ ܗܘ ܘܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܐܫܠܡܘܟ ܠܝ ܡܢܐ ܥܒܕܬ ܀
35Pilate answered, “I’m not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you to me. What have you done?”
36ܐܡܪ 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 ܀
36Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I wouldn’t be delivered to the Jews. But now my Kingdom is not from here.”
37ܐܡܪ 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 ܀
37Pilate therefore said to him, “Are you a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.”
38ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܡܢܘ ܫܪܪܐ ܘܟܕ ܐܡܪ ܗܕܐ ܢܦܩ ܠܗ ܬܘܒ ܠܘܬ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܥܠܬܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܐ ܒܗ ܀
38Pilate said to him, “What is truth?” When he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, “I find no basis for a charge against him.
39ܥܝܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܚܕ ܐܫܪܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܦܨܚܐ ܨܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܐܫܪܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܗܢܐ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀
39But you have a custom, that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
40ܘܩܥܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܠܗܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܒܪ ܐܒܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܢܐ ܒܪ ܐܒܐ ܓܝܤܐ ܀
40Then they all shouted again, saying, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
