47. While he was still speaking, behold, there came a crowd, and the one named Judas, one of the twelve, leading them. And he approached Jesus to kiss him.

48. But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

49. And when those around him saw what was about to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with the sword?”

50. And a certain one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

51. But Jesus answered and said, “Stop! No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him.

52. And Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders who had come out against him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber?

53. Every day when I was with you in the temple courts, you did not stretch out your hands against me! But this is your hour and the domain of darkness!”

54. And they arrested him and led him away and brought him into the house of the high priest. But Peter was following at a distance.
