Matthew 26:14-16 - Judas Arranges To Betray Jesus

¹⁴ It was then that one of the Twelve, named Judas Iscariot, made his way to the Chief Priests, ¹⁵ And said "What are you willing to give me, if I betray Jesus to you?" The Priests 'weighed him out thirty pieces of silver' as payment. ¹⁶ So from that time Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

¹⁰ After this, Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the Chief Priests, to betray Jesus to them. ¹¹ They were glad to hear what he said, and promised to pay him. So he looked for a way to betray Jesus opportunely.

³ Now Satan took possession of Judas, who was known as Iscariot, and who belonged to the Twelve; ⁴ And he went and discussed with the Chief Priests and Officers in charge at the Temple the best way of betraying Jesus to them. ⁵ They were glad of this, and agreed to pay him. ⁶ So Judas assented, and looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them, in the absence of a crowd.
