Matthew 27:1–10

aWhen the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people btook counsel against Jesus to put him to death: 2 And when they had bound him, cthey led him away, and ddelivered him to ePontius Pilate fthe governor.

3 gThen Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, hrepented himself, and brought again gthe thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the iinnocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. 5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and khanged himself. 6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the ltreasury, because it is the price of blood. 7 And they btook counsel, and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in. 8 Wherefore that field was called, mThe field of blood, mmunto this day. 9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by nJeremy the prophet, saying, oAnd they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, ||whom they of the children of Israel did value; 10 And gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord pappointed me.
