4 Knowing everything that would happen to him, Jesus went out and asked, “Who is it you are looking for?”
5 They answered, “Jesus from Nazareth.”“I am he,” Jesus said. (Judas, the one who turned against Jesus, was standing there with them.)
6 When Jesus said, “I am he,” they moved back and fell to the ground.
7 Jesus asked them again, “Who is it you are looking for?”They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 “I told you that I am he,” Jesus said. “So if you are looking for me, let the others go.”
9 This happened so that the words Jesus said before would come true: “I have not lost any of the ones you gave me.”
10 Simon Peter, who had a sword, pulled it out and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.)
