52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place! For all who take up the sword will die by the sword.
53 Or do you think that I cannot call upon my Father, and he would put at my disposal at once more than twelve legions of angels?
54 How then would the scriptures be fulfilled that it must happen in this way?”
55 At that time Jesus said to the crowds, “Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber, to arrest me? Every day in the temple courts I sat teaching, and you did not arrest me!
56 But all this has happened in order that the scriptures of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then the disciples all abandoned him and fled.
57 Now those who had arrested Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered.
58 But Peter was following him from a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest. And he went inside and was sitting with the officers to see the outcome.
