| 46 Up, let's be going. See, my betrayer is here!" | 46 Rise, let us go! Here comes my betrayer!" |
| 47 And even as he said this, Judas, one of the twelve disciples, arrived with a mob that was armed with swords and clubs. They had been sent out by the leading priests and other leaders of the people. | 47 While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the elders of the people. |
| 48 Judas had given them a prearranged signal: "You will know which one to arrest when I go over and give him the kiss of greeting." | 48 Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: "The one I kiss is the man; arrest him." |
| 49 So Judas came straight to Jesus. "Greetings, Teacher!" he exclaimed and gave him the kiss. | 49 Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, "Greetings, Rabbi!" and kissed him. |
| 50 Jesus said, "My friend, go ahead and do what you have come for." Then the others grabbed Jesus and arrested him. | 50 Jesus replied, "Friend, do what you came for." Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him. |
