2. They tied him, led him away, and turned him over to Pilate, the governor.
3. Judas, the one who had given Jesus to his enemies, saw that they had decided to kill Jesus. Then he was very sorry for what he had done. So he took the thirty silver coins back to the priests and the leaders,
4. saying, “I sinned; I handed over to you an innocent man.”The leaders answered, “What is that to us? That’s your problem, not ours.”
