Matthew 27:1-3

New Testament for Everyone

The death of Judas

27 When dawn broke, all the chief priests and elders of the people held a council meeting about Jesus, in order to have him put to death. ² They tied him up, took him off, and handed him over to Pilate, the governor.

³ Meanwhile Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that he had been condemned, and was filled with remorse. He took the thirty pieces of silver back to the high priests and elders.
