When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples.
2
Now Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft-times resorted thither with his disciples.
3
Judas then, having received the band [of soldiers], and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4
Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them,
Whom seek ye?
5
They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them,
I am [he]. And Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
6
When therefore he said unto them,
I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7
Again therefore he asked them,
Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
8
Jesus answered,
I told you that I am [he]; if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:
9
that the word might be fulfilled which he spake, Of those whom thou hast given me I lost not one.

Simon Peter therefore having a sword drew it, and struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant's name was Malchus.
