Luke 22:38

Jesus

36 “Now, however,” He told them, “the one with a purse should take it, and likewise a bag; and the one without a sword should sell his cloak and buy one.

37 For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in Me: ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For what is written about Me is reaching its fulfillment.”

So they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.” “That is enough,” He answered.

39 Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed Him.

40 When He came to the place, He told them, “Pray that you will not enter into temptation.”
