1The festival of unleavened bread that is called Passover drew near.2The chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might kill him, for they feared the people.3Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.4He went away and conferred with the chief priests and officers about how he might deliver him to them.5They rejoiced and agreed to give him money.6He confessed and kept seeking an opportunity to deliver him to them without a crowd.
