Seeker Overlay ON

* When Jesus had spoken these words , He went out with His disciples over the Brook Kidron , where there was a garden , which He and His disciples entered . * And Judas , who betrayed Him , also knew the place ; for Jesus often met there with His disciples . * Then Judas , having received a detachment of troops , and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees , came there with lanterns , torches , and weapons . * Jesus therefore , knowing all things that would come upon Him , went forward and said to them , "Whom are you seeking ?" * They answered Him , "Jesus of Nazareth ." Jesus said to them , "I am He ." And Judas , who betrayed Him , also stood with them . * Now when He said to them , "I am He ," they drew back and fell to the ground . * Then He asked them again , "Whom are you seeking ?" And they said , "Jesus of Nazareth ." * Jesus answered , "I have told you that I am He . Therefore , if you seek Me , let these go their way ," * that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke , "Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none ." * Then Simon Peter , having a sword , drew it and struck the high priest 's servant , and cut off his right ear . The servant 's name was Malchus . * So Jesus said to Peter , "Put your sword into the sheath . Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me ?"
