Mark 14:40-47

40He found them asleep because they couldn’t keep their eyes open. They didn’t even know what they should say to him.

41He came back a third time and said to them, “You might as well sleep now. It’s all over. The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinners.

42Get up! Let’s go! The one who is betraying me is near.”

43Just then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve apostles, arrived. A crowd carrying swords and clubs was with him. They were from the chief priests, the experts in Moses’ Teachings, and the leaders of the people.

44Now, the traitor had given them a signal. He said, “The one I kiss is the man you want. Arrest him, and guard him closely as you take him away.”

45Then Judas quickly stepped up to Jesus and said, “Rabbi!” and kissed him.

46Some men took hold of Jesus and arrested him.

47One of those standing there pulled out his sword and cut off the ear of the chief priest’s servant.
