Luke 22:44-54

44 And he was made in agony, and prayed the longer [And he made in agony, either anguish, prayed longer]; and his sweat was made as drops of blood running down into the earth.
45 And when he was risen from prayer [And when he had risen from prayer], and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for heaviness.
46 And he said to them, What sleep ye? Rise ye, and pray ye [Rise ye, and pray], that ye enter not into temptation.
47 Yet while he spake, lo! a company, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he came [nigh] to Jesus, to kiss him.
48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou man's Son with a kiss?
49 And they that were about him, and saw that that was to come, said to him, Lord, whether we smite with sword?
50 And one of them smote the servant of the prince of priests, and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered, and said, Suffer ye till hither. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.
52 And Jesus said to them, that came to him, the princes of priests, and magistrates of the temple [and magistrates, or masters, of the temple], and elder men, As to a thief ye have gone out with swords and staves?
53 When I was each day with you in the temple, ye stretched not out [the] hands into me; but this is your hour, and the power of darknesses.
54 And they took him, and led to the house of the prince of priests; and Peter followed him afar.
