John 18:1-19

Moffatt(i) 1 Having said this, Jesus went out with his disciples across the Kidron ravine to an orchard, which he entered in the company of his disciples. 2 Judas the traitor also knew the spot, for Jesus and his disciples often met there. 3 So after procuring troops and some attendants belonging to the high priests and the Pharisees, Judas went there with lanterns and torches and weapons. 4 Then Jesus, who knew everything that was to happen to him, came forward and asked them, "Who are you looking for?" 5 "Jesus the Nazarene," they replied. Jesus said, "I am he." (And Judas the traitor was standing beside them.) 6 When he said, "I am he," they fell back and dropped to the ground; 7 so he asked them once more, "Who are you looking for?" And when they replied, "Jesus the Nazarene," 8 he answered, "I told you that I am he; if it is me you are looking for, let these men get away" 9 (this was to fulfil his own word: 'I did not lose a single one of those whom thou didst give me'). 10 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant, cutting off his right ear (the servant's name was Malchus); 11 whereupon Jesus said to Peter, "Sheathe your sword. Am I not to drink the cup which the Father has handed me?" 12 So the troops and their commander and the Jewish attendants seized Jesus, bound him, 13 and brought him first of all to Annas (for Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year — 14 the Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was for their interests that one man should die for the people). 15 [vss 15-18 moved to between 24 & 25] Simon Peter followed Jesus along with another disciple; and as this disciple was an acquaintance of the high priest, he passed into the courtyard of the high priest with Jesus, 16 while Peter stood outside at the door. Then this other disciple, who was an acquaintance of the high priest, came out and spoke to the woman at the door, and brought Peter inside. 17 The maidservant at the door then said to Peter, "Are you not one of this fellow's disciples?" He said, "No." 18 Now the servants and the attendants were standing and warming themselves at a charcoal fire which they had lit (for it was cold), and Peter also stood beside them and warmed himself. 19 Then the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
