The Arrest of Jesus

47

While He was still speaking, a crowd arrived, led by the man called Judas, one of the Twelve. He approached Jesus to kiss Him.

48

But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

49

Those around Jesus saw what was about to happen and said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”

50

And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.

51

But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And He touched the man’s ear and healed him.

52

Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple officers, and elders who had come for Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as you would against an outlaw?

53

Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on Me. But this hour belongs to you and to the power of darkness.”
