The King James Version Bible

Mark 14:43-54

  1. And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

  2. And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.

  3. And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.

  4. And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

  5. And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

  6. And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?

  7. I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.

  8. And they all forsook him, and fled.

  9. And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:

  10. And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

  11. And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

  12. And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.
