1
When the morning was come, all the princes of the priests and the 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, who had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the princes of the priests and the elders,
4
saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? Thou shalt see to it.
5
And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed and went and hanged himself.
6
And the princes of the priests taking the silver pieces, said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury because it is the price of blood.
