Matthew 27:2-14

2and they boundG1210 him, and ledG520 him awayG520, and deliveredG3860 him up to PilateG4091 the governorG2232.

3Then JudasG2455, who betrayedG3860 him, when he sawG3708 that he was condemnedG2632, repented himself, and brought back the thirtyG5144 pieces of silverG694 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and eldersG4245, 4sayingG3004, I have sinnedG264 in that I betrayedG3860 innocent bloodG129. But they saidG3004, What is that to us? seeG3708 thou to it. 5And he castG4496 down the pieces of silverG694 into the sanctuary, and departedG565; and he wentG565 awayG565 and hanged himself. 6And the chiefG749 priestsG749 tookG2983 the pieces of silverG694, and saidG3004, It isG1510 not lawfulG1832 to putG906 them into the treasury, since it isG1510 the priceG5092 of bloodG129. 7And they tookG2983 counsel, and boughtG59 with them the potter’sG2763 fieldG68, to bury strangersG3581 in. 8Wherefore that fieldG68 was calledG2564, The fieldG68 of bloodG129, unto this dayG4594. 9Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through JeremiahG2408 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, And they tookG2983 the thirtyG5144 pieces of silverG694, the priceG5092 of him that was priced, whom certain of the children of IsraelG2474 did priceG5092; 10and they gaveG1325 them for the potter’sG2763 fieldG68, as the LordG2962 appointed me.

11NowG1161 JesusG2424 stoodG2476 before the governorG2232: and the governorG2232 askedG1905 him, sayingG3004, Art thou the KingG935 of the JewsG2453? And JesusG2424 saidG3004 unto him, Thou sayest. 12And when he was accusedG2723 by the chiefG749 priestsG749 and eldersG4245, he answeredG611 nothing. 13ThenG5119 saith PilateG4091 unto him, Hearest thou not howG4214 manyG4214 things they witness against thee? 14And he gave him no answerG611, not evenG2532 to oneG1520 word: insomuch that the governorG2232 marvelled greatlyG3029.
