Luke 22:47-53
Wycliffe Bible
47 Yet while he spake, lo! a company, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he came [nigh] to Jesus, to kiss him.
48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou man's Son with a kiss?
49 And they that were about him, and saw that that was to come, said to him, Lord, whether we smite with sword?
50 And one of them smote the servant of the prince of priests, and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered, and said, Suffer ye till hither. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.
52 And Jesus said to them, that came to him, the princes of priests, and magistrates of the temple [and magistrates, or masters, of the temple], and elder men, As to a thief ye have gone out with swords and staves?
53 When I was each day with you in the temple, ye stretched not out [the] hands into me; but this is your hour, and the power of darknesses.

New Matthew Bible
47 While he was yet speaking, behold, there came a band of men, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. And he pressed near to Jesus to kiss him. 48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?
49 When those who were with Jesus saw what would follow, they said to him, Lord, shall we smite with swords? 50 And one of them struck a servant of the most high priest, and cut off his right ear. 51 But Jesus answered and said, Let it come to this. And he touched the servant’s ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the high priests and officers of the temple, and the elders who had approached him, Have you come out as if to a thief, with swords and clubs? 53 When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth hands against me. But this is even your very hour, and the power of darkness.
