Matthew 27:1-5
English Standard Version
Chapter 27
1When morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death. 2And they bound him and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate the governor.
3Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that Jesus was condemned, he changed his mind and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders,
4saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood." They said, "What is that to us? See to it yourself."
5And throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple, he departed, and he went and hanged himself.
