Matthew 26:48-51 English Standard Version (ESV)

48. Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.”

49. And he came up to Jesus at once and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” And he kissed him.

50. Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you came to do.” Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him.

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