Luke 22:45-51 Common English Bible (CEB)

45. When he got up from praying, he went to the disciples. He found them asleep, overcome by grief.

46. He said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray so that you won’t give in to temptation."

47. While Jesus was still speaking, a crowd appeared, and the one called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him.

48. Jesus said to him, "Judas, would you betray the Human One with a kiss?"

49. When those around him recognized what was about to happen, they said, "Lord, should we fight with our swords?"

50. One of them struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear.

51. Jesus responded, "Stop! No more of this!" He touched the slave’s ear and healed him.
