Matthew 26:47-58

471And while He was stillG2089 speakingG2980, beholdG2400, 2JudasG2455, oneG1520 of the twelveG1427, cameG2064 3accompaniedG3326G846 by a largeG4183 crowdG3793 with swordsG3162 and clubsG3586, who came from the chiefG749 priestsG749 and eldersG4245 of the peopleG2992. 48NowG1161 he who was betrayingG3860 Him gaveG1325 them a signG4592 previously, sayingG3004, “WhomeverG3739G302 I kissG5368, He is the one; arrestG2902 Him.” 49And immediatelyG2112 Judas wentG4334 upG4334 toG4334 JesusG2424 and saidG3004, “GreetingsG5463, 4RabbiG4461!” and kissedG2705 Him. 50But JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “5FriendG2083, do whatG3739 you haveG3918 comeG3918 for.” ThenG5119 they cameG4334 and laidG1911 handsG5495 on JesusG2424 and arrestedG2902 Him.

51And beholdG2400, 6oneG1520 of thoseG3588 whoG3588 were with JesusG2424 7reachedG1614 and drewG645 his 8swordG3162, and struckG3960 the 9slaveG1401 of the highG749 priestG749 and 10cutG851 offG851 his earG5621. 52ThenG5119 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “PutG654 your swordG3162 backG654 into its placeG5117; for 11allG3956 thoseG3588 who takeG2983 up the swordG3162 will perishG622 by the swordG3162. 53OrG2228 do you thinkG1380 that I cannotG1410G3756 appealG3870 to My FatherG3962, and He will at onceG737 putG3936 atG3936 My disposalG3936 moreG4183 than twelveG1427 1213legionsG3003 of 14angelsG32? 54HowG4459 thenG3767 would 15the ScripturesG1124 be fulfilledG4137, which say that it mustG1163 happenG1096 thisG3779 wayG3779?”

55At that timeG5610 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to the crowdsG3793, “Have you comeG1831 outG1831 with swordsG3162 and clubsG3586 to arrestG4815 Me as you would againstG1909 a manG3027 incitingG3027 aG3027 revoltG3027? 16EveryG2596 dayG2250 I used to sitG2516 within the templeG2413 grounds teachingG1321, and you did not arrestG2902 Me. 56But allG3650 thisG3778 has takenG1096 placeG1096 soG2443 thatG2443 17the ScripturesG1124 of the prophetsG4396 will be fulfilledG4137.” ThenG5119 allG3956 the disciplesG3101 leftG863 Him and fledG5343.

5718ThoseG3588 who had arrestedG2902 JesusG2424 ledG520 Him awayG520 to 19CaiaphasG2533, the highG749 priestG749, whereG3699 the scribesG1122 and the eldersG4245 were gatheredG4863 togetherG4863. 58But 20PeterG4074 was followingG190 Him at a distanceG3113, asG2193 farG2193 asG2193 the 21courtyardG833 of the highG749 priestG749, and he cameG1525 insideG2080 and satG2521 downG2521 with the 2223officersG5257 to seeG3708 the outcomeG5056.
