See, we are going up to Jerusalem. And the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death. The third passion prediction names the agents of the condemnation for the first time: the chief priests and scribes. The delivered over (paradidomi) is the word of betrayal — the delivering that Judas will perform and that the Father will use for the atonement (Romans 8:32).
