John 18:1-11
"When JESUS had spoken these words, HE went forth with HIS disciples over the ravine of the Kidron, where there was a garden, in which HE entered with HIS disciples.
2 Now Judas also, who was betraying HIM, knew the place, for JESUS had often met there with HIS disciples.
3 Judas then, having received the Roman cohort and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 So JESUS, knowing all the things that were coming upon HIM, went forth and said to them,
'Whom do you seek?'
5 They answered HIM, 'JESUS THE NAZARENE'.
HE said to them, 'I am HE.'
And Judas also, who was betraying HIM, was standing with them.
6 So when HE said to them,
'I am HE,'
they drew back and fell to the ground.
7 Therefore HE again asked them,
'Whom do you seek?'
And they said,
'JESUS THE NAZARENE'.
8 JESUS answered,
'I told you that I am HE; so if you seek ME, let these go their way,'
9 to fulfill the word which HE spoke,
'Of those whom YOU have given ME I lost not one.'
10 Simon Peter then, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s slave, and cut off his right ear; and the slave’s name was Malchus.
11 So JESUS said to Peter,
'Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which THE FATHER has given ME, shall I not drink it?'”
