Matthew 26:1-5 - The Chief Priests And Elders Plot To Kill Jesus

¹ AND it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples, ² Ye know that after two days is the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

³ Then were the chief priests and scribes, and the elders of the people gathered together in the palace of the high-priest, called Caiaphas. ⁴ And they consulted together, how they might seize Jesus by guile, and put him to death. ⁵ But they said, Not on the feast-day, lest there be a tumult among the people.
