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.
55. And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.
56. And a certain female slave, seeing him sitting in the light and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him!”
57. But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him!”
58. And after a short time another person saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”
59. And after about one hour had passed, someone else was insisting, saying, “In truth this man also was with him, because he is also a Galilean!”
60. But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
