यूहन्ना 18

1 यीशु ये बातें कहकर अपने चेलों के साथ किद्रोन के नाले के पार गया, वहां एक बारी थी, जिस में वह और उसके चेले गए।

2 और उसका पकड़वाने वाला यहूदा भी वह जगह जानता था, क्योंकि यीशु अपने चेलों के साथ वहां जाया करता था।

3 तब यहूदा पलटन को और महायाजकों और फरीसियों की ओर से प्यादों को लेकर दीपकों और मशालों और हथियारों को लिए हुए वहां आया।

4 तब यीशु उन सब बातों को जो उस पर आनेवाली थीं, जानकर निकला, और उन से कहने लगा, किसे ढूंढ़ते हो?

5 उन्होंने उस को उत्तर दिया, यीशु नासरी को: यीशु ने उन से कहा, मैं ही हूं: और उसका पकड़वाने वाला यहूदा भी उन के साथ खड़ा था।

6 उसके यह कहते ही, कि मैं हूं, वे पीछे हटकर भूमि पर गिर पड़े।

7 तब उस ने फिर उन से पूछा, तुम किस को ढूंढ़ते हो।

8 वे बोले, यीशु नासरी को। यीशु ने उत्तर दिया, मैं तो तुम से कह चुका हूं कि मैं ही हूं, यदि मुझे ढूंढ़ते हो तो इन्हें जाने दो।

9 यह इसलिये हुआ, कि वह वचन पूरा हो, जो उस ने कहा था कि जिन्हें तू ने मुझे दिया, उन में से मैं ने एक को भी न खोया।

10 शमौन पतरस ने तलवार, जो उसके पास थी, खींची और महायाजक के दास पर चलाकर, उसका दाहिना कान उड़ा दिया, उस दास का नाम मलखुस था।

11 तब यीशु ने पतरस से कहा, अपनी तलवार काठी में रख: जो कटोरा पिता ने मुझे दिया है क्या मैं उसे न पीऊं?

12 तब सिपाहियों और उन के सूबेदार और यहूदियों के प्यादों ने यीशु को पकड़कर बान्ध लिया।

13 और पहिले उसे हन्ना के पास ले गए क्योंकि वह उस वर्ष के महायाजक काइफा का ससुर था।

14 यह वही काइफा था, जिस ने यहूदियों को सलाह दी थी कि हमारे लोगों के लिये एक पुरूष का मरना अच्छा है।

15 शमौन पतरस और एक और चेला भी यीशु के पीछे हो लिए: यह चेला महायाजक का जाना पहचाना था और यीशु के साथ महायाजक के आंगन में गया।

16 परन्तु पतरस बाहर द्वार पर खड़ा रहा, तब वह दूसरा चेला जो महायाजक का जाना पहचाना था, बाहर निकला, और द्वारपालिन से कहकर, पतरस को भीतर ले आया।

17 उस दासी ने जो द्वारपालिन थी, पतरस से कहा, क्या तू भी इस मनुष्य के चेलों में से है? उस ने कहा, मैं नहीं हूं।

18 दास और प्यादे जाड़े के कारण को एले धधकाकर खड़े ताप रहे थे और पतरस भी उन के साथ खड़ा ताप रहा था॥

19 तक महायाजक ने यीशु से उसके चेलों के विषय में और उसके उपदेश के विषय में पूछा।

20 यीशु ने उस को उत्तर दिया, कि मैं ने जगत से खोलकर बातें की; मैं ने सभाओं और आराधनालय में जहां सब यहूदी इकट्ठे हुआ करते हैं सदा उपदेश किया और गुप्त में कुछ भी नहीं कहा।

21 तू मुझ से क्यों पूछता है? सुनने वालों से पूछ: कि मैं ने उन से क्या कहा? देख वे जानते हैं; कि मैं ने क्या क्या कहा

22 तब उस ने यह कहा, तो प्यादों में से एक ने जो पास खड़ा था, यीशु को थप्पड़ मारकर कहा, क्या तू महायाजक को इस प्रकार उत्तर देता है।

23 यीशु ने उसे उत्तर दिया, यदि मैं ने बुरा कहा, तो उस बुराई पर गवाही दे; परन्तु यदि भला कहा, तो मुझे क्यों मारता है?

24 हन्ना ने उसे बन्धे हुए काइफा महायाजक के पास भेज दिया॥

25 शमौन पतरस खड़ा हुआ ताप रहा था। तब उन्होंने उस से कहा; क्या तू भी उसके चेलों में से है? उस ने इन्कार करके कहा, मैं नहीं हूं।

26 महायाजक के दासों में से एक जो उसके कुटुम्ब में से था, जिसका कान पतरस ने काट डाला था, बोला, क्या मैं ने तुझे उसके साथ बारी में न देखा था?

27 पतरस फिर इन्कार कर गया और तुरन्त मुर्ग ने बांग दी॥

28 और वे यीशु को काइफा के पास से किले को ले गए और भोर का समय था, परन्तु वे आप किले के भीतर न गए ताकि अशुद्ध न हों परन्तु फसह खा सकें।

29 तब पीलातुस उन के पास बाहर निकल आया और कहा, तुम इस मनुष्य पर किस बात की नालिश करते हो?

30 उन्होंने उस को उत्तर दिया, कि यदि वह कुकर्मी न होता तो हम उसे तेरे हाथ न सौंपते।

31 पीलातुस ने उन से कहा, तुम ही इसे ले जाकर अपनी व्यवस्था के अनुसार उसका न्याय करो: यहूदियों ने उस से कहा, हमें अधिकार नहीं कि किसी का प्राण लें।

32 यह इसलिये हुआ, कि यीशु की वह बात पूरी हो जो उस ने यह पता देते हुए कही थी, कि उसका मरना कैसा होगा॥

33 तब पीलातुस फिर किले के भीतर गया और यीशु को बुलाकर, उस से पूछा, क्या तू यहूदियों का राजा है?

34 यीशु ने उत्तर दिया, क्या तू यह बात अपनी ओर से कहता है या औरों ने मेरे विषय में तुझ से कही?

35 पीलातुस ने उत्तर दिया, क्या मैं यहूदी हूं? तेरी ही जाति और महायाजकों ने तुझे मेरे हाथ सौंपा, तू ने क्या किया है?

36 यीशु ने उत्तर दिया, कि मेरा राज्य इस जगत का नहीं, यदि मेरा राज्य इस जगत का होता, तो मेरे सेवक लड़ते, कि मैं यहूदियों के हाथ सौंपा न जाता: परन्तु अब मेरा राज्य यहां का नहीं।

37 पीलातुस ने उस से कहा, तो क्या तू राजा है? यीशु ने उत्तर दिया, कि तू कहता है, क्योंकि मैं राजा हूं; मैं ने इसलिये जन्म लिया, और इसलिये जगत में आया हूं कि सत्य पर गवाही दूं जो कोई सत्य का है, वह मेरा शब्द सुनता है।

38 पीलातुस ने उस से कहा, सत्य क्या है? और यह कहकर वह फिर यहूदियों के पास निकल गया और उन से कहा, मैं तो उस में कुछ दोष नहीं पाता।

39 पर तुम्हारी यह रीति है कि मैं फसह में तुम्हारे लिये एक व्यक्ति को छोड़ दूं सो क्या तुम चाहते हो, कि मैं तुम्हारे लिये यहूदियों के राजा को छोड़ दूं?

40 तब उन्होंने फिर चिल्लाकर कहा, इसे नहीं परन्तु हमारे लिये बरअब्बा को छोड़ दे; और बरअब्बा डाकू था॥

1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples.

2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.

3 Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.

4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.

6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.

7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:

9 That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.

10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.

11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,

13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.

16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man’s disciples? He saith, I am not.

18 And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.

19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.

21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.

22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?

23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?

24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.

26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.

28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.

29 Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?

30 They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.

31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:

32 That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.

33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?

34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?

35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?

36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.

39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

40 Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

1 And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

14 The sower soweth the word.

15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.

18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

21 And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

23 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

24 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.

25 For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

26 And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

30 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

33 And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.

34 But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
