Luke 22:47-51

Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus

47 ¹While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called ²Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him,

48 but Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss? ”

49 And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike ³with the sword? ”

50 And one of them struck the servant^[a] of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

51 But Jesus said, “No more of this! ”And he touched his ear and healed him.
