2. The chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.
3. And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, belonging to the number of the twelve.

5. They were glad and agreed to give him money.
6. So he consented, and began seeking a good opportunity to betray Him to them apart from the crowd.
