Matthew:28:11-15

*
Now while they were going ,
behold ,
some of the guards came into the city ,
and told the chief priests all the things that had happened .
*
When they were assembled with the elders ,
and had taken counsel ,
they gave a large amount of silver to the soldiers ,
*
saying , "
Say that his disciples came by night ,
and stole him away while we slept .
*
If this comes to the governor '
s ears ,
we will persuade him and make you free of worry ."
*
So they took the money and did as they were told .
This saying was spread abroad among the Jews ,
and continues until this day .
