John 11:47-53
New King James Version
47 (A)Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, (B)“What shall we do? For this Man works many signs. 48 If we let Him alone like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation.”
49 And one of them, (C)Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all, 50 (D)nor do you consider that it is expedient for [a]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 authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation, 52 and (E)not for that nation only, but (F)also that He would gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad.
53 Then, from that day on, they plotted to (G)put Him to death.

John 11:47-53
New International Version
47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees(A) called a meeting(B) of the Sanhedrin.(C)
“What are we accomplishing?” they asked. “Here is this man performing many signs.(D) 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our temple and our nation.”
49 Then one of them, named Caiaphas,(E) who was high priest that year,(F) spoke up, “You know nothing at all! 50 You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”(G)
51 He did not say this on his own, but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the Jewish nation, 52 and not only for that nation but also for the scattered children of God, to bring them together and make them one.(H) 53 So from that day on they plotted to take his life.(I)
