Matthew 26:47-54

47While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people.

48(Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I kiss is the man. Arrest him!”)

49Immediately he went up to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Rabbi,” and kissed him.

50Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you are here to do.” Then they came and took hold of Jesus and arrested him.

51But one of those with Jesus grabbed his sword, drew it out, and struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his ear.

52Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back in its place! For all who take hold of the sword will die by the sword.

53Or do you think that I cannot call on my Father, and that he would send me more than twelve legions of angels right now?

54How then would the scriptures that say it must happen this way be fulfilled?”
