John 18:1-9

1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, and his disciples.
2 And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus often resorted thither with his disciples.
3 Judas then, having received a band [of men] and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns, and torches, and weapons.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that were coming upon him, went forth, and said to them, Whom seek ye?
5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them, I am [he]. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.
6 As soon then as he had said to them, I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Then he asked them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am [he]: If therefore ye seek me, let these go away:
9 That the saying might be fulfilled which he spoke, Of them whom thou gavest to me, I have lost none.
