Peter was still in the courtyard when one of the High Priest's servant women came by. When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said: You were with Jesus of Nazareth. He denied it.

The servant woman saw him there and told bystanders, He is one of them! Peter denied it again. Later the bystanders accused Peter again saying: You cannot deny that you are one of them, because you, too, are from Galilee. Then Peter said: I swear I am telling the truth! May God punish me if I lie! I do not know the man you are talking about! Then a rooster crowed. Peter remembered what Jesus said: Before the rooster crows two times, you will deny me three times. He broke down and cried.

As he spoke, Judas, one of the twelve, followed by a crowd carrying swords and spears, approached him. The chief priest and elders of the people had sent them. He that betrayed him gave them a sign. He told them: The one I kiss is he. Take him. He went directly to Jesus and said: Hail, Rabbi, and kissed him. read more.
Jesus told him: Do that for which you came. They laid hands on Jesus, and captured him. Look, one of them with Jesus stretched out his hand, drew his sword, and cut off the ear of the servant of the high priest. Jesus told him: Put your sword in its place. Those who take up the sword will perish by the sword. Do you think I cannot ask my Father for help? He would send me more than twelve legions of angels. How then will the scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen this way? That very hour Jesus said to the people, Have you come out to take me with swords and sticks as if I were a thief? You did not take me when I taught in the Temple daily. This has taken place so that the writings of the prophets will come true. Then all his disciples left him.

Suddenly, as he spoke, Judas one of the twelve arrived. A great crowd with swords and spears were with him. They were from the chief priests, scribes and elders. He who betrayed him gave them a sign. He told them the one I kiss is the one to capture and take away safely. When he arrived he went straight to him and said: Master and kissed him. read more.
They grabbed him and took him away. One of those who were near took out his sword and gave the servant of the high priest a blow, cutting off his ear. Jesus said: Have you come out as against a thief with swords and sticks to take me? I was with you every day in the Temple teaching and you did not take me. This is done so that the scriptures will be fulfilled. They all left him, and fled. A young man followed him. He was wearing a linen cloth over his naked body. They tried to grab him. But they got a hold of the linen cloth and he fled naked. They led Jesus away to the high priest. The chief priests, elders and scribes came together with him. Peter followed him at a distance. He followed into the court of the high priest. He was sitting with the officers staying warm by the fire.

One of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. Jesus said: Do not do any more of this. Then he touched his ear and healed him. Jesus spoke to the chief priests, captains of the temple and elders who came against him: Did you come as you would against a robber with swords and clubs? I was with you every day in the temple. Yet you did not lift a hand against me. This is your hour for this power of darkness.

Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place because Jesus went there frequently with his disciples. Judas brought a band of armed men and police from the chief priests and Pharisees there with lights and with weapons. Jesus knew what was about to happen to him. He asked: Whom do you seek? read more.
They answered him: Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus replied: I am he. Judas the betrayer was with them. When he said to them I am he they drew back and fell to the ground. Again he asked: Whom do you seek? And they said: Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus answered: I told you that I am he. If you seek me let these go their way. That way the word he spoke might be fulfilled; 'I lost none of those you gave me.' Simon Peter drew the sword he had, struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus. Jesus said to Peter: Put the sword in the sheath. Shall I drink the cup the Father has given me? The soldiers, the military commanders, and the officers of the Jews, seized Jesus and bound him.
