Matthew 28:11-15

11 While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.

12 And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave a sum of money to the soldiers

13 and said, "Tell people, 'His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.'

14 And if this comes to the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble."

15 So they took the money and did as they were directed; and this story has been spread among the Jews to this day.
