Matthew 26:49-57 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

49. And immediately he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, Teacher; and kissed him.

50. And Jesus said unto him,

51. And, behold, one of them who was with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

52. Then said Jesus unto him,

53. Think you that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

54. But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

55. In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes,

56. But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.

57. And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
