John 18:1-7

1 When Jesus had said these things, he went out with his disciples over the strand of Cedron, where was a yard, or a garden, into which he entered, and his disciples.
2 And Judas, that betrayed him, knew the place, for oft Jesus came thither with his disciples.
3 Therefore when Judas had taken a company of knights, and ministers of the bishops and of the Pharisees, he came thither with lanterns, and brands, and arms.
4 And so Jesus witting all things that were to come on him, went forth, and said to them, Whom seek ye?
5 They answered to him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them, I am. And Judas that betrayed him, stood with them.
6 And when he said to them, I am, they went aback, and fell down on the earth.
7 And again he asked them, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
