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

¹ Jesus having spoken these words, went forth with his disciples over the brook Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered and his disciples. ² And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus had often met there with his disciples. ³ Judas then having received a troop of soldiers, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns, and torches, and arms.

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

⁵ They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them, I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them. ⁶ As soon as he said to them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.

⁷ He asked them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

⁸ Jesus answered, I have told you, I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go: ⁹ That the saying might be fulfilled which he had spoke, Of them whom thou hast given me, I have lost none.

¹⁰ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right-ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

¹¹ Then said Jesus to Peter, Put up the sword into its scabbard. The cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
