Luke

Luke 22:52–54

52Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple officers, and elders who had come for Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as you would against an outlaw? 53Every day I was with you in the temple courts,e and you did not lay a hand on Me. But this hour belongs to you and to the power of darkness.”

54Then they seized Jesus, led Him away, and took Him into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed at a distance.
