hast given me, I have not lost any one.
18:10. Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the servant
of the high priest and cut off his right ear. And the name of thee
servant was Malchus.
18:11. Jesus therefore said to Peter: Put up thy sword into the
scabbard. The chalice which my father hath given me, shall I not drink
it?
18:12. Then the band and the tribune and the servants of the Jews took
Jesus and bound him.
18:13. And they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to
Caiphas, who was the high priest of that year.
18:14. Now Caiphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews: That it
was expedient that one man should die for the people.
18:15. And Simon Peter followed Jesus: and so did another disciple. And
that disciple was known to the high priest and went in with Jesus into
the court of the high priest.
18:16. But Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple
therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the
portress and brought in Peter.
18:17. The maid therefore that was portress saith to Peter: Art not thou
also one of this man's disciple? He saith I am not.
18:18. Now the servants and ministers stood at a fire of coals, because
it was cold, and warmed themselves. And with them was Peter also,
standing and warming himself.
18:19. The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples and of his
doctrine.
18:20. Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world. I have
always taught in the synagogue and in the temple, whither all the Jews
resort: and in secret I have spoken nothing.
18:21. Why askest thou me? Ask them who have heard what I have spoken
unto them. Behold they know what things I have said.
18:22. And when he had said these things, one of the servants standing
by gave Jesus a blow, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so?
18:23. Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, give testimony of the
evil; but if well, why strikest thou me?
18:24. And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas the high priest.
18:25. And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said
therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it
and said: I am not.
18:26. One of the servants of the high priest (a kinsman to him whose
ear Peter cut off) saith to him: Did not I see thee in the garden with
him?
18:27. Again therefore Peter denied: and immediately the cock crew.
18:28. Then they led Jesus from Caiphas to the governor's hall. And it
was morning: and they went not into the hall, that they might not be
defiled, but that they might eat the pasch.
18:29. Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation
bring you against this man?
18:30. They answered and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we
would not have delivered him up to thee.
