Matthew 27:1-6

1 When the morning was come , all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death :

2 And when they had bound him, they led him away , and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned , repented himself , and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

4 Saying , I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said , What is that to us? see thou to that.

5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed , and went and hanged himself .

6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said , It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
