John 18:1-9

1When Jesus had spoken these words, 1He went forth with His disciples over 2the 3ravine of the Kidron, where there was 4a garden, in which He entered 5with His disciples.

2Now Judas also, who was 6betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had 7often met there with His disciples.

38Judas then, having received 9the Roman 10cohort and 11officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns and 12torches and weapons.

4So Jesus, 13knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, went forth and said to them, “14Whom do you seek?”

5They answered Him, “Jesus the Nazarene.” He said to them, “I am He.” And Judas also, who was betraying Him, was standing with them.

6So when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

7Therefore He again asked them, “15Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus the Nazarene.”

8Jesus answered, “I told you that I am He; so if you seek Me, let these go their way,”

9to fulfill the word which He spoke, “16Of those whom You have given Me I lost not one.”
