018:005 "For Jesus the Nazarene," was the answer. "I am he," He replied.
(Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)
018:006 As soon then as He said to them, "I am he," they went backwards
and fell to the ground.
018:007 Again therefore He asked them, "Who are you looking for?"
"For Jesus the Nazarene," they said.
018:008 "I have told you," replied Jesus, "that I am he.
If therefore you are looking for me, let these my disciples
go their way."
018:009 He made this request in order that the words He had spoken
might be fulfilled, "As for those whom Thou hast given me,
I have not lost one."
018:010 Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at
the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear.
The servant's name was Malchus.
018:011 Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put back your sword.
Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father
has given me to drink?"
018:012 So the battalion and their tribune and the Jewish police closed in,
and took Jesus and bound Him.
018:013 They then brought Him to Annas first; for Annas was the father-in-law
of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.
018:014 (It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, "It is
to your interest that one man should die for the People.")
