Matthew 26:1-5
World English Bible
26 When Jesus had finished all these words, he said to his disciples, 2 “You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”
3 Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas. 4 They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit and kill him. 5 But they said, “Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people.”

The Plot to Kill Jesus(A)
26 When Jesus had finished saying all these things,[a] he told his disciples, 2 “You know that the Passover will take place in two days, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”
3 Then the high priests and the elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas. 4 They conspired to arrest Jesus by treachery and to kill him. 5 But they kept saying, “This must not happen during the festival. Otherwise, there’ll be a riot among the people.”
