my kingdom is not from hence

若望福音John:Chapter 18

36耶穌回答說:「我的國不屬於這世界;假使我的國屬於這世界,我的臣民早已反抗了,使我不至於被交給猶太人;但是,我的國不是這世界的。」

36Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.
