WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Dos días después se celebraba la Pascua y los Panes sin Levadura. Los principales sacerdotes y los escribas buscaban cómo detenerlo por engaño y asesinarlo.
1 It was now two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might seize him by deception and kill him.
2 Decían: ¡No en la fiesta! No sea que se produzca un tumulto del pueblo.
2 For they said, “Not during the feast, because there might be a riot among the people.”
3 Cuando Él estaba reclinado en Betania en la casa de Simón el leproso, se acercó una mujer con un frasco de alabastro con perfume de nardo puro muy costoso. Quebró el frasco de alabastro y [lo] derramó sobre su cabeza.
3 While he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster jar of ointment of pure nard—very costly. She broke the jar and poured it over his head.
4 Algunos que se indignaron [decían]: ¿Para qué [ella] hizo este desperdicio de perfume?
4 But there were some who were indignant among themselves, saying, “Why has this ointment been wasted?
5 Porque podría venderse por más de 300 denarios para dar a los pobres. La censuraban.
5 For this might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” So they grumbled against her.
6 Pero Jesús dijo: Déjenla. No la molesten, porque buena obra hizo en Mí.
6 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me.
7 A los pobres siempre [los] tienen con ustedes, y cuando quieran pueden hacerles bien, pero a Mí no [me] tienen siempre.
7 For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want to, you can do them good; but you will not always have me.
8 Hizo lo que tenía disponible. Ungió mi cuerpo con anticipación para la sepultura.
8 She has done what she could. She has anointed my body beforehand for the burying.
9 En verdad les digo: Dondequiera que se prediquen las Buenas Noticias se contará lo que hizo en memoria de ella.
9 Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News may be preached throughout the whole world, that which this woman has done will also be spoken of for a memorial of her.”
10 Entonces Judas Iscariote, uno de los 12, fue a los sumos sacerdotes para entregárselo.
10 Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests, that he might deliver him to them.
11 Al oír [esto], ellos se regocijaron y prometieron darle plata. Y él buscaba una manera conveniente para entregarlo.
11 They, when they heard it, were glad, and promised to give him money. He sought how he might conveniently deliver him.
12 El primer día de los Panes sin Levadura, cuando celebraban la Pascua, los discípulos le preguntaron: ¿Dónde quieres que preparemos para comer la pascua?
12 On the first day of unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the Passover, his disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare that you may eat the Passover?”
13 Envió a dos de sus discípulos y les ordenó: Vayan a la ciudad, y un hombre que lleva un cántaro de agua los encontrará. Síganlo,
13 He sent two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the city, and there a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him,
14 y donde entre, digan al señor de la casa que el Maestro dice: ¿Dónde está mi aposento para comer la pascua con mis discípulos?
14 and wherever he enters in, tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’
15 Él les mostrará un gran aposento alto, amoblado y dispuesto. Preparen allí la pascua.
15 He will himself show you a large upper room furnished and ready. Get ready for us there.”
16 Los discípulos fueron a la ciudad. Encontraron como Él les dijo y prepararon la pascua.
16 His disciples went out, and came into the city, and found things as he had said to them, and they prepared the Passover.
17 Al llegar la noche, fue con los 12.
17 When it was evening he came with the twelve.
18 Cuando estaban reclinados y comían, Jesús dijo: En verdad les digo que uno de ustedes quien come conmigo, me entregará.
18 As they sat and were eating, Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, one of you will betray me—he who eats with me.”
19 Se entristecieron y le preguntaban: ¿Seré yo?
19 They began to be sorrowful, and to ask him one by one, “Surely not I?” And another said, “Surely not I?”
20 Él les contestó: Es uno de los 12, quien moja el pan en el tazón conmigo.
20 He answered them, “It is one of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish.
21 En verdad, el Hijo del Hombre sigue [adelante], como está escrito de Él. Pero, ¡ay de aquél hombre quien entrega al Hijo del Hombre! Le sería mejor no haber nacido.
21 For the Son of Man goes as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born.”
22 Mientras comían, Jesús tomó un pan, dio gracias, lo partió y dijo: Tomen, esto es mi cuerpo.
22 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had blessed it, he broke it and gave to them, and said, “Take, eat. This is my body.”
23 Después de tomar una copa y dar gracias, les dio, y todos bebieron de ella.
23 He took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave to them. They all drank of it.
24 Y dijo: Esto es mi sangre del Pacto que es derramada por muchos.
24 He said to them, “This is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many.
25 En verdad les digo: Que de ningún modo beba [Yo] más del fruto de la vid hasta aquel día cuando lo beba nuevo en el reino de Dios.
25 Most certainly I tell you, I will no more drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in God’s Kingdom.”
26 Después de cantar un himno salieron hacia la Montaña de Los Olivos.
26 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
27 Jesús les dijo: Todos ustedes serán conturbados, porque está escrito: Heriré al Pastor, y las ovejas serán dispersadas.
27 Jesus said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’
28 Pero después de ser resucitado, iré delante de ustedes a Galilea.
28 However, after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.”
29 Entonces Pedro le dijo: Si todos son conturbados, ciertamente yo no.
29 But Peter said to him, “Although all will be offended, yet I will not.”
30 Jesús le respondió: En verdad te digo que hoy, esta noche, antes que un gallo cante dos veces, me negarás tres veces.
30 Jesus said to him, “Most certainly I tell you that you today, even this night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”
31 Pero Pedro insistía: Aunque sea necesario morir contigo, de ningún modo te negaré. Y lo mismo decían todos.
31 But he spoke all the more, “If I must die with you, I will not deny you.” They all said the same thing.
32 Entonces fueron a un sitio llamado Getsemaní, y [Jesús] dijo a sus discípulos: Siéntense aquí, hasta que Yo hable con Dios.
32 They came to a place which was named Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”
33 Tomó con Él a Pedro, Jacobo y Juan. Entonces [se] entristeció y [se ]angustió.
33 He took with him Peter, James, and John, and began to be greatly troubled and distressed.
34 Les dijo: Mi alma está profundamente afligida hasta [la] muerte. Quédense aquí y velen.
34 He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch.”
35 Después de ir un poco adelante, se postraba en tierra y hablaba con el Padre. [Pedía] que si fuera posible, pasara de Él aquella hora.
35 He went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.
36 Y decía: ¡Abba! que significa Padre. ¡Todas las cosas son posibles para Ti! ¡Aparta de Mí esta copa! Pero no lo que Yo quiero, sino lo que Tú [quieras].
36 He said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Please remove this cup from me. However, not what I desire, but what you desire.”
37 [Jesús] volvió y los halló dormidos, y dijo a Pedro: Simón, ¿duermes? ¿No tuviste fuerzas para velar una hora?
37 He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn’t you watch one hour?
38 Velen y hablen con Dios para que no entren en tentación. El espíritu a la verdad está dispuesto, pero la carne es débil.
38 Watch and pray, that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
39 Fue otra vez y dijo las mismas palabras.
39 Again he went away and prayed, saying the same words.
40 Al regresar otra vez, los halló dormidos, porque sus ojos estaban pesados, y no sabían qué responderle.
40 Again he returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they didn’t know what to answer him.
41 Volvió la tercera vez y les dijo: Duerman y descansen lo que resta. ¡Es suficiente! Llegó la hora. Ya el Hijo del Hombre es entregado en las manos de los pecadores.
41 He came the third time and said to them, “Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough. The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42 ¡Levántense! Vamos. Miren, el que me entrega se acerca.
42 Arise! Let’s get going. Behold, he who betrays me is at hand.”
43 Al instante, mientras aún Él hablaba, llegó Judas, uno de los 12, acompañado por una turba con espadas y garrotes enviados por los principales sacerdotes, los escribas y los ancianos.
43 Immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, came—and with him a multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders.
44 El que lo entregaba les dio una señal: Es Aquel a Quien yo bese. Arréstenlo y llévenlo bajo guardia.
44 Now he who betrayed him had given them a sign, saying, “Whomever I will kiss, that is he. Seize him, and lead him away safely.”
45 De inmediato, se acercó Judas y le dijo: ¡Maestro! Y lo besó aparatosamente.
45 When he had come, immediately he came to him and said, “Rabbi! Rabbi!” and kissed him.
46 Entonces le pusieron las manos encima y lo arrestaron.
46 They laid their hands on him and seized him.
47 Pero uno de los presentes sacó la espada, atacó al esclavo del sumo sacerdote y le amputó la oreja.
47 But a certain one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
48 Jesús les preguntó: ¿Como contra un bandido salieron con espadas y garrotes a detenerme?
48 Jesus answered them, “Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to seize me?
49 Cada día estaba con ustedes y enseñaba en el Santuario, y no me arrestaron. Pero [esto sucede] para que se cumplan las Escrituras.
49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you didn’t arrest me. But this is so that the Scriptures might be fulfilled.”
50 Todos lo abandonaron y huyeron.
50 They all left him, and fled.
51 Un joven lo seguía cubierto con una sábana. Y lo arrestaron,
51 A certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth thrown around himself over his naked body. The young men grabbed him,
52 pero él soltó la sábana y huyó desnudo.
52 but he left the linen cloth and fled from them naked.
53 Llevaron a Jesús ante el sumo sacerdote. [Allí] se reunieron todos los principales sacerdotes, los ancianos y los escribas.
53 They led Jesus away to the high priest. All the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes came together with him.
54 Pedro lo siguió de lejos, hasta el patio del sumo sacerdote, y se sentó con los guardias para calentarse junto al fuego.
54 Peter had followed him from a distance, until he came into the court of the high priest. He was sitting with the officers, and warming himself in the light of the fire.
55 Los principales sacerdotes y el Tribunal Supremo buscaban testigos contra Jesús para asesinarlo, pero no [los] hallaban.
55 Now the chief priests and the whole council sought witnesses against Jesus to put him to death, and found none.
56 Porque muchos daban falso testimonio contra Él, pero los testimonios no eran iguales.
56 For many gave false testimony against him, and their testimony didn’t agree with each other.
57 Algunos que dieron falso testimonio contra Él dijeron:
57 Some stood up and gave false testimony against him, saying,
58 Nosotros lo oímos cuando dijo: Yo destruiré este Templo hecho por manos humanas, y en tres días edificaré otro no hecho por manos.
58 “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’”
59 Pero aun así su testimonio no coincidía.
59 Even so, their testimony didn’t agree.
60 El sumo sacerdote se levantó y preguntó a Jesús: ¿Nada respondes a lo que testifican contra ti?
60 The high priest stood up in the middle, and asked Jesus, “Have you no answer? What is it which these testify against you?”
61 Pero Él guardó silencio y nada respondió. El sumo sacerdote le preguntaba otra vez: ¿Eres Tú el Cristo, el Hijo del Bendito?
61 But he stayed quiet, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?”
62 Jesús respondió: Yo soy. Verán al Hijo del Hombre sentado a la mano derecha del Padre y que viene en las nubes del cielo.
62 Jesus said, “I am. You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of the sky.”
63 Entonces el sumo sacerdote rasgó sus ropas y dijo: ¿Qué necesidad tenemos de testigos?
63 The high priest tore his clothes and said, “What further need have we of witnesses?
64 Ustedes oyeron la blasfemia. ¿Qué les parece? Y todos ellos lo declararon reo de muerte.
64 You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?” They all condemned him to be worthy of death.
65 Algunos comenzaron a escupirlo, a cubrirle el rostro, a darle puñetazos y a decirle: ¡Profetiza! También los alguaciles lo recibieron a bofetadas.
65 Some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to beat him with fists, and to tell him, “Prophesy!” The officers struck him with the palms of their hands.
66 Mientras Pedro estaba abajo en el patio, apareció una de las esclavas del sumo sacerdote.
66 As Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the maids of the high priest came,
67 Cuando vio que Pedro se calentaba, lo miró fijamente y le dijo: ¡Tú también estabas con Jesús de Nazaret!
67 and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, “You were also with the Nazarene, Jesus!”
68 Pero él negó: No sé ni entiendo lo que dices. Y salió a la puerta.
68 But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you are saying.” He went out on the porch, and the rooster crowed.
69 Al verlo otra vez, la esclava repitió a los presentes: ¡Éste es [uno] de ellos!
69 The maid saw him and began again to tell those who stood by, “This is one of them.”
70 Pero él negó otra vez. Un poco después, los que estaban presentes dijeron otra vez a Pedro: ¡Verdaderamente eres de ellos, pues también eres galileo!
70 But he again denied it. After a little while again those who stood by said to Peter, “You truly are one of them, for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it.”
71 Y él juró con maldición: ¡No conozco a este Hombre de Quien ustedes hablan!
71 But he began to curse and to swear, “I don’t know this man of whom you speak!”
72 Enseguida el gallo cantó por segunda vez, y Pedro se acordó de lo que Jesús le dijo: Antes que el gallo cante dos veces, me negarás tres veces. Reflexionó y lloraba.
72 The rooster crowed the second time. Peter remembered the words that Jesus said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” When he thought about that, he wept.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
