Mark 14:43-52

43And at once, while He was still speaking, Judas [Iscariot], one of the twelve [disciples], came up, and with him a crowd of men with swords and clubs, who came from the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders [of the Sanhedrin].

44Now the betrayer had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I kiss, He is the one; seize Him and lead Him away safely [under guard].”

45When Judas came, immediately he went up to Jesus and said, “Rabbi (Master)!” and he kissed Him [forcefully].

46They laid hands on Him and seized Him.

47But one of the bystanders [Simon Peter] drew his sword and struck [Malchus] the slave of the high priest and cut off his ear.

48Jesus said to them, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me, as you would against a robber?

49Day after day I was with you, teaching in the [courts and porches of the] temple, and you did not seize Me; but this has happened so that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

50Then all of His disciples abandoned Him and fled.

51A young man was following Him, wearing [only] a linen sheet over his naked body; and some men seized him.

52But pulling free of the linen sheet, he escaped [from them] naked.
