Matthew 26:54-56

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁵⁴ But how then would the scriptures be fulfilled, which say it must happen in this way?’ ⁵⁵ At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, ‘Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me as though I were a bandit? Day after day I sat in the temple teaching, and you did not arrest me. ⁵⁶ But all this has taken place, so that the scriptures of the prophets may be fulfilled.’ Then all the disciples deserted him and fled.
