John 18:10-15
New King James Version
10 (A)Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink (B)the cup which My Father has given Me?”
Before the High Priest
12 Then the detachment of troops and the captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him. 13 And (C)they led Him away to (D)Annas first, for he was the father-in-law of (E)Caiaphas who was high priest that year. 14 (F)Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was [a]expedient that one man should die for the people.
Peter Denies Jesus(G)
15 (H)And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did (I)another[b] disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.
