Now the feast of unleaven’d bread drew nigh,
Which is call’d the Passover
And the Chief Priests and the Scribes consulted,
Seeking how they might kill Him;
For they fear’d the people.
Then Satan enter’d into Judas
Whose surname is was Iscariot,
Being of the number of twelve.
And he went and commun’d with the chief priests
And with the captains,
How he might betray him unto them.
And they were glad,
And covenanted to give him money.
And he promised,
And sought opportunity
To betray him
Unto them in the absence of the multitude.
