John 18:8-10

Good News Translation

⁸ “I have already told you that I am he,” Jesus said. “If, then, you are looking for me, let these others go.” (⁹ He said this so that what he had said might come true: “Father, I have not lost even one of those you gave me.”)

¹⁰ Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the High Priest's slave, cutting off his right ear. The name of the slave was Malchus.
