Matthew 26:14-24

14 Then one of the Twelve, the one called Y'hudah from K'riot, went to the head cohanim
15 and said, "What are you willing to give me if I turn Yeshua over to you?" They counted out thirty silver coins and gave them to Y'hudah.n
16 From then on he looked for a good opportunity to betray him.
17 On the first day for matzah, the talmidim came to Yeshua and asked, "Where do you want us to prepare your Seder?"
18 "Go into the city, to so-and-so," he replied, "and tell him that the Rabbi says, `My time is near, my talmidim and I are celebrating Pesach at your house.'"
19 The talmidim did as Yeshua directed and prepared the Seder.
20 When evening came, Yeshua reclined with the twelve talmidim;
21 and as they were eating, he said, "Yes, I tell you that one of you is going to betray me."
22 They became terribly upset and began asking him, one after the other, "Lord, you don't mean me, do you?"
23 He answered, "The one who dips his matzah in the dish with me is the one who will betray me.
24 The Son of Man will die just as the Tanakh says he will; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for him had he never been born!"
