John 18:20-24 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

20. Jesus answered, “I have always spoken publicly to everyone; all my teaching was done in the synagogues and in the Temple, where all the people come together. I have never said anything in secret.

21. Why, then, do you question me? Question the people who heard me. Ask them what I told them — they know what I said.”

22. When Jesus said this, one of the guards there slapped him and said, “How dare you talk like that to the High Priest!”

23. Jesus answered him, “If I have said anything wrong, tell everyone here what it was. But if I am right in what I have said, why do you hit me?”

24. Then Annas sent him, still bound, to Caiaphas the High Priest.
