1 Early in the morning all the chief priests and the elders of the people reached the decision to have Jesus put to death.
2 They bound him, led him away, and turned him over to Pilate the governor.
3 When Judas, who betrayed Jesus, saw that Jesus was condemned to die, he felt deep regret. He returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, and
4 said, "I did wrong because I betrayed an innocent man." But they said, "What is that to us? That’s your problem."
5 Judas threw the silver pieces into the temple and left. Then he went and hanged himself.
