1 Early in the morning all the chief priests and the leaders of the people decided to execute Jesus. 2 They tied him up, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate, the governor. 3 Then Judas, who had betrayed Jesus, regretted what had happened when he saw that Jesus was condemned. He brought the 30 silver coins back to the chief priests and leaders. 4 He said, |I've sinned by betraying an innocent man.| They replied, |What do we care? That's your problem.| 5 So he threw the money into the temple, went away, and hanged himself. Matthew 27:1-5, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
