26 ⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, appeared; with him was a great crowd armed with swords and cudgels, sent by the chief priests and the elders of the nation. 26 ⁴⁸ The traitor gave them this sign: 'The one I kiss is your man; seize him'; 26 ⁴⁹ and stepping forward at once, he said, 'Hail, Rabbi!', and kissed him. 26 ⁵⁰ Jesus replied, 'Friend, do what you are here to do.' Or: Friend, what are you here for? They then came forward, seized Jesus, and held him fast.
26 ⁵¹ At that moment one of those with Jesus reached for his sword and drew it, and he struck at the High Priest's servant and cut off his ear. 26 ⁵² But Jesus said to him, 'Put up your sword. All who take the sword die by the sword. 26 ⁵³ Do you suppose that I cannot appeal to my Father, who would at once send to my aid more than twelve legions of angels? 26 ⁵⁴ But how then could the scriptures be fulfilled, which say that this must be?'
26 ⁵⁵ At the same time Jesus spoke to the crowd. 'Do you take me for a bandit,' he said, 'that you have come out with swords and cudgels to arrest me? Day after day I sat teaching in the temple, and you did not lay hands on me. 26 ⁵⁶ But this has all happened to fulfil what the prophets wrote.'

Then the disciples all deserted him and ran away.
