Matthew

Matthew 26:46–50

⁴⁶Rise, let us go! See, My betrayer is approaching!”

⁴⁷While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

⁴⁸Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him.” ⁴⁹Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

⁵⁰“Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you came for.”^g

Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him.
