Matthew 26:51-53
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
51 And behold— one of the ones with Jesus, having stretched-out his hand, withdrew his sword. And having struck the slave of the high priest, he took-off his ear. 52 Then Jesus says to him, “Return your sword into its place. For all the ones having taken the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Or do you think[a] that I am not able to appeal-to My Father, and He will provide[b] Me right-now more than twelve legions[c] of angels?
