Matthew 26:51-54 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

51. When that happened, one of Jesus’ followers reached for his sword and pulled it out. The follower struck the servant of the high priest with the sword and cut off his ear.

52. Jesus said to the man, “Put your sword back in its place. All who use swords will be killed with swords.

53. Surely you know I could ask my Father, and he would give me more than 12 armies of angels.

54. But this thing must happen this way so that it will be as the Scriptures say.”
