Matthew 27:1-3

Living Bible

27 When it was morning, the chief priests and Jewish leaders met again to discuss how to induce the Roman government to sentence Jesus to death.^{[a] 2} Then they sent him in chains to Pilate, the Roman governor.

³ About that time Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus had been condemned to die, changed his mind and deeply regretted what he had done,^[b] and brought back the money to the chief priests and other Jewish leaders.
