Then came they, and laid handes on Iesus, and tooke him. 51And behold, one of them which were with Iesus, stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and stroke a seruant of the high Priests, and smote off his eare. 52Then said Iesus vnto him, Put vp againe thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword, shall perish with the sword. 53Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my father, and he shall presently giue me more then twelue legions of Angels?
