¹⁰ Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, took it out and gave the high priest's servant a blow, cutting off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

¹¹ Then Jesus said to Peter, Put back your sword: am I not to take the cup which my Father has given to me?

²⁶ One of the servants of the high priest, a relation of him whose ear had been cut off by Peter, said, Did I not see you with him in the garden?

²⁷ Then again Peter said, No. And straight away a cock gave its cry.

²⁸ Will you put me to death as you did the Egyptian yesterday?
