Matthew 27:1-5

1When daybreak came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people plotted against Jesus to put him to death.

2After tying him up, they led him away and handed him over to Pilate, the governor.

3Then Judas, his betrayer, seeing that Jesus had been condemned, was full of remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders.

4“I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What’s that to us?” they said. “See to it yourself!”

5So he threw the silver into the temple and departed. Then he went and hanged himself.
