⁴³ And yet while he spake, Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, came, and with him much people with swords and staves, sent from the high priests, and the scribes, and from the elder men. [And, yet him speaking, Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, came, and with him much company with swords and staves, sent from the highest priests, and scribes, and elder men.]

⁴⁴ And his traitor had given to them a token, and said [saying], Whomever I [shall] kiss, he it is; hold ye him, and lead ye him warily.

⁴⁵ And when he came, at once he came to him, and said^[a], Master; and he kissed him.

⁴⁶ And they laid hands on him, and held him.

⁴⁷ But one of the men that stood about, drew out a sword, and smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.^[b]

⁴⁸ And Jesus answered, and said to them, As to a thief ye have gone out with swords and staves, to take me?

⁴⁹ Day by day I was among you, and taught in the temple [Day by day I was at you, teaching in the temple], and ye held not me; but that the scriptures be fulfilled.

⁵⁰ Then all his disciples forsook him, and fled.

⁵¹ But a young man [Soothly some young man], clothed with linen cloth on the bare, followed him; and they held him.

⁵² And he left the linen clothing, and flew naked away from them. [And the linen cloth forsaken, he naked fled away from them.]
