Luke 22:47-52

⁴⁷While Jesus was still speaking, a crowd came to him. Judas, even though he was one of the twelve disciples, was leading them. He came close to Jesus and kissed him on the cheek as if to greet him, but was really a signal to those with him which one was Jesus.

⁴⁸Jesus said to him, “Judas, ◄I am disappointed that it is by kissing me that you are enabling my enemies to seize me, the one who came from heaven!/is it by kissing me as though you loved me that you are enabling my enemies to seize me, the one who came from heaven?► RHQ”

⁴⁹When the disciples who were around Jesus realized what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we (exc) strike them with our swords?”

⁵⁰One of his disciples drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest to kill him, but only cut off his right ear.

⁵¹But Jesus said, “Do not do any more of that!” He touched the servant's ear and healed him.

⁵²Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the Temple guards, and the Jewish elders who had come to seize him, “◄It is ridiculous that you have come here with swords and clubs to capture MTY me, as if I were a bandit!/Why have you come here with swords and clubs to capture MTY me, as if I were a bandit?► RHQ Day after day I was with you in the Temple courtyard, and you did not seize me! But this is the time MTY when God is allowing you to do what you want. It is also the time MTY when God is allowing Satan, who rules MTY in the darkness, to do what he wants.”
