Matthew 27:3-8

3Then Judas, who had betrayed Jesus, regretted what had happened when he saw that Jesus was condemned. He brought the 30 silver coins back to the chief priests and leaders.

4He said, “I’ve sinned by betraying an innocent man.” They replied, “What do we care? That’s your problem.”

5So he threw the money into the temple, went away, and hanged himself.

6The chief priests took the money and said, “It’s not right to put it into the temple treasury, because it’s blood money.”

7So they decided to use it to buy a potter’s field for the burial of strangers.

8That’s why that field has been called the Field of Blood ever since.
