[26:47] While he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people.
[26:48] Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.”
[26:49] And he came up to Jesus at once and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” And he kissed him.
[26:50] Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you came to do.” Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him.
[26:51] And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.
[26:52] Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.
[26:53] Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels?
[26:54] But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?”
[26:55] At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? Day after day I sat in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me.
[26:56] But all this has taken place that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.
