Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I wouldn’t be delivered to the Jews. But now my Kingdom is not from here.”
World English Bible (WEB)
Jesus{G2424} answered{G611}{(G5662)}, My{G1699} kingdom{G932} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} this{G5127} world{G2889}: if{G1487} my{G1699} kingdom{G932} were{G2258}{(G5713)} of{G1537} this{G5127} world{G2889}, then would{G302} my{G1699} servants{G5257} fight{G75}{(G5711)}, that{G3363} I should{G3860} not{G3363} be delivered{G3860}{(G5686)} to the Jews{G2453}: but{G1161} now{G3568} is{G2076}{(G5748)} my{G1699} kingdom{G932} not{G3756} from hence{G1782}.
Strong's King James
(36) Yeshua answered, "My Kingdom isn't from this world. If My Kingdom were of this world, My servants would perhaps fight in order that I wasn't handed over to the Judeans but as it is My Kingdom isn't from here."
The F.O.G*
[36] Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest. But My kingdom is from another place" – revealing the spiritual nature of His authority.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
Jesus answered, ‘My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my officers had struggled that I might not be delivered up to Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence.’
