New Matthew Bible

3 Then the chief priests, scribes, and elders of the people assembled together at the palace of the high priest called Caiaphas 4 and held a council, how they might take Jesus by subtlety and kill him. 5 But, they said, not on the holy day, lest any uproar arise among the people.
