Matthew 26:14-19

Judas's Bargain

14 ¹Then one of the twelve, named ²Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

15 and said, "What are you willing to give me to ³betray Him to you?" And ⁴they weighed out thirty pieces of silver to him.

16 From then on he began looking for a good opportunity to betray Jesus.

17 ⁵Now on the first day of ⁶Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?"

18 And He said, "Go into the city to ⁷a certain man, and say to him, 'The Teacher says, "⁸My time is near; I am to keep the Passover at your house with My disciples."' "

19 The disciples did as Jesus had directed them; and they prepared the Passover.
