John 18:6-10 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. Then, when he said to them, "I am he," they moved back and fell to the ground.

7. Then again he questioned them: "Who are you seeking?" And they said, "Jesus the Nazarene."

8. Jesus responded: "I told you that I am he. Therefore, if you are seeking me, permit these others to go away."

9. This was so that the word might be fulfilled, which he said, "Of those whom you have given to me, I have not lost any of them."

10. Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and he struck the servant of the high priest, and he cut off his right ear. Now the name of the servant was Malchus.
