John 18:1-11 - Jesus Is Betrayed And Arrested

¹ Jesus, having said these things, went out with his disciples beyond the torrent Cedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, he and his disciples. ² And Judas also, who delivered him up, knew the place, because Jesus was often there, in company with his disciples. ³ Judas therefore, having got the band, and officers of the chief priests and Pharisees, comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

⁴ Jesus therefore, knowing all things that were coming upon him, went forth and said to them, Whom seek ye?

⁵ They answered him, Jesus the Nazaraean. Jesus says to them, I am he. And Judas also, who delivered him up, stood with them. ⁶ When therefore he said to them, I am he, they went away backward and fell to the ground.

⁷ He demanded of them therefore again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus the Nazaraean.

⁸ Jesus answered, I told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go away; ⁹ that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, As to those whom thou hast given me, I have not lost one of them.

¹⁰ Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and smote the bondman of the high priest and cut off his right ear; and the bondman's name was Malchus.

¹¹ Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given me, shall I not drink it?
