The Plot to Kill Jesus

1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, that He said to His disciples,
2 a“You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”  
3 aThen the chief priests,1 the scribes, and the elders of the people assembled at the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,  
4 and aplotted to take Jesus by trickery and kill Him.  
5 But they said, “Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar among the apeople.”  

The Anointing at Bethany

6 And when Jesus was in aBethany at the house of Simon the leper,  
7 a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table.
8 aBut when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?  
9 For this fragrant oil might have been sold for much and given to the poor.”
10 But when Jesus was aware of it, He said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for Me.
11 aFor you have the poor with you always, but bMe you do not have always.  
12 For in pouring this fragrant oil on My body, she did it for My aburial.  
13 Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus

14 aThen one of the twelve, called bJudas Iscariot, went to the chief priests  
15 and said, a“What are you willing to give me if I deliver Him to you?” And they counted out to him thirty pieces of silver.
