John 11:49-52

49 But one of them, ¹Caiaphas, ²who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,

50 nor do you take into account that ³it is expedient for you that one man die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish."

51 Now he did not say this on his own initiative, but ⁴being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation,

52 and not for the nation only, but in order that He might also ⁵gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
