Mark 14:40-47

40When he came again he found them sleeping; they could not keep their eyes open. And they did not know what to tell him.

41He came a third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Enough of that! The hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42Get up, let us go. Look! My betrayer is approaching!”

43Right away, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him came a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and experts in the law and elders.

44(Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I kiss is the man. Arrest him and lead him away under guard.”)

45When Judas arrived, he went up to Jesus immediately and said, “Rabbi!” and kissed him.

46Then they took hold of him and arrested him.

47One of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his ear.
