John 11:47-53

CAB(i) 47 Therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, "What are we doing? For this Man works many signs. 48 If we leave Him alone in this way, all will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and will take away both our place and our nation." 49 But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, "You don't know anything, 50 nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish." 51 Now this he did not say on his own, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation, 52 and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad. 53 Therefore from that day on they took counsel together, that they might kill Him.
