4
Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?
5
They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus said unto them, I AM. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.
6
And when he said unto them, I AM, 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; if, therefore, ye seek me, let these go away,
9
that the word might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Of those whom thou gavest me I have lost none.
10
Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and smote the high priest’s slave and cut off his right ear. The slave’s name was Malchus.
11
Then Jesus said unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath; the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?
12
Then the company of soldiers and the tribune and the ministers of the Jews took Jesus and bound him
13
and led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was the high priest of that year
and he sent him bound unto Caiaphas, the high priest.
14
Now Caiaphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
