Matthew 27:3

Judas
Guilt and conscienceRepentance

1 When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

2 They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

When Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was filled with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders.

4 “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

5 So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.
