Luke 22:42-52

42 He said, " Father, if it's your will, take this cup of suffering away from me. However, not my will but your will must be done."

43 Then a heavenly angel appeared to him and strengthened him.

44 He was in anguish and prayed even more earnestly. His sweat became like drops of blood falling on the ground.

45 When he got up from praying, he went to the disciples. He found them asleep, overcome by grief.

46 He said to them, " Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray so that you won't give in to temptation."

Jesus’ arrest

47 While Jesus was still speaking, a crowd appeared, and the one called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him.

48 Jesus said to him, " Judas, would you betray the Human One with a kiss?"

49 When those around him recognized what was about to happen, they said, "Lord, should we fight with our swords?"

50 One of them struck the high priest's servant, cutting off his right ear.

51 Jesus responded, " Stop! No more of this!" He touched the slave's ear and healed him.

52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders who had come to get him, " Have you come with swords and clubs to arrest me, as though I were a thief?
