John 18

Judas

They were carrying torches, lanterns, and weapons.

Jesus

Jesus of Nazareth

Judas

They moved back and fell to the ground.

Jesus said, "I told you that I am Jesus. So if you are looking for me, let these other men go free."

Simon Peter

He struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

Malchus

"Put your sword back in its place! I must drink from the cup the Father has given me."

The other follower knew the high priest.

Peter waited outside near the door.

He came back outside and spoke to the gatekeeper. Then he brought Peter inside.

"Are you also one of the followers of that man?"

"No, I am not!"

It was cold and they were standing around it, warming themselves.

Simon Peter

Peter denied it. He said, "No, I am not."

He was a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off.

Peter said, "No, I was not with him!"

A rooster crowed.
