52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back in its place! For all who take hold of the sword will die by the sword.
53 Or do you think that I cannot call on my Father, and that he would send me more than twelve legions of angels right now?
54 How then would the scriptures that say it must happen this way be fulfilled?”
55 At that moment Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw? Day after day I sat teaching in the temple courts, yet you did not arrest me.
56 But this has happened so that the scriptures of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.
57 Now the ones who had arrested Jesus led him to Caiaphas, the high priest, in whose house the experts in the law and the elders had gathered.
58 But Peter was following him from a distance, all the way to the high priest’s courtyard. After going in, he sat with the guards to see the outcome.
