Matthew 26:51-54
New American Standard Bible
51 And behold, (A)one of those who were with Jesus [a]reached and drew his (B)sword, and struck the (C)slave of the high priest and [b]cut off his ear. 52 Then Jesus *said to him, “Put your sword back into its place; for (D)all those who take up the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve [c](E)legions of (F)angels? 54 How then would (G)the Scriptures be fulfilled, which say that it must happen this way?”
