## Matthew 26:51-52 in Context (Verses 48–55 KJV)
 
 [48 ](/kjv/matthew/26/48) Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.
 
 [49 ](/kjv/matthew/26/49) And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.
 
 [50 ](/kjv/matthew/26/50) And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
 
 [51 ](/kjv/matthew/26/51) And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out *his* hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest’s, and smote off his ear.
 
 [52 ](/kjv/matthew/26/52) Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
 
 [53 ](/kjv/matthew/26/53) Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
 
 [54 ](/kjv/matthew/26/54) But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
 
 [55 ](/kjv/matthew/26/55) In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.
