John 18:10-12

New Testament for Everyone

¹⁰ Simon Peter had a sword. He drew it and hit the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.

¹¹ “Put your sword back in its sheath!” said Jesus to Peter. “Do you imagine I’m not going to drink the cup my father has given me?”

¹² So the band of soldiers, with the officer and the Judaean attendants, arrested Jesus and tied him up.
