John 18:19-24

Common English Bible CEB

19 Meanwhile, the chief priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

20 Jesus answered, "I've spoken openly to the world. I've always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews gather. I've said nothing in private.

21 Why ask me? Ask those who heard what I told them. They know what I said."

22 After Jesus spoke, one of the guards standing there slapped Jesus in the face. "Is that how you would answer the high priest?" he asked.

23 Jesus replied, "If I speak wrongly, testify about what was wrong. But if I speak correctly, why do you strike me?"

24 Then Annas sent him, bound, to Caiaphas the high priest.

19 Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

20 “I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus replied. “I always taught in synagogues or at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret.

21 Why question me? Ask those who heard me. Surely they know what I said.”

22 When Jesus said this, one of the officials nearby slapped him in the face. “Is this the way you answer the high priest?” he demanded.

23 “If I said something wrong,” Jesus replied, “testify as to what is wrong. But if I spoke the truth, why did you strike me?”

24 Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
