47. And while He was still speaking, see: a crowd! And he who was called Yehuḏah, one of the twelve, was going before them and came near to יהושע to kiss Him.
48. And יהושע said to him, “Yehuḏah, do you deliver up the Son of Aḏam with a kiss?”
49. And those around Him, seeing what was about to take place, said to Him, “Master, shall we strike with the sword?”
50. And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
51. But יהושע answering, said, “Allow it this far.” And touching his ear He healed him.
52. And יהושע said to those who had come against Him, the chief priests and captains of the Set-apart Place and the elders, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
53. “While I was with you daily in the Set-apart Place, you did not lay hands on Me. But this is your hour and the authority of darkness.”
54. And having seized Him, they led Him and brought Him to the house of the high priest. And Kĕpha was following at a distance.
55. And when they had lit a fire in the midst of the courtyard, and sat down together, Kĕpha sat among them.
56. And a certain servant girl, seeing him as he sat by the fire, looked intently at him and said, “And this one was with Him.”
57. But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”
58. And after a little while another saw him and said, “You are one of them too.” But Kĕpha said, “Man, I am not!”
59. And about an hour later, another insisted, saying, “Truly, this one was with Him too, for he is a Galilean too.”
60. But Kĕpha said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61. And the Master turned and looked at Kĕpha, and Kĕpha remembered the word of the Master, how He had said to him, “Before a cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.”
62. And Kĕpha went out and wept bitterly.
63. And the men who were holding יהושע were mocking Him, beating Him.
64. And having blindfolded Him, they were striking Him on the face and were asking Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is it that struck You?”
