Judas’ Bargain

14 (A)Then one of the twelve, named (B)Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 15 and said, “What are you willing to give me [a]to [b](C)betray Him to you?” And (D)they set out for him thirty [c]pieces of silver. 16 And from then on he looked for a good opportunity to [d]betray [e]Jesus.
