Luke
Luke 22:2–5
2and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a way to put Jesus to death, for they feared the people.
3Then Satan entered Judas Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve. 4And Judas went to discuss with the chief priests and temple officers how he might betray Jesus to them. 5They were delighted and agreed to give him money.
