Matthew 27:3-9

3ThenG5119 when 1JudasG2455, who had betrayedG3860 Him, sawG3708 that He had been condemnedG2632, he feltG3338 remorseG3338 and returnedG4762 2the thirtyG5144 3piecesG694 of silverG694 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and eldersG4245,

4sayingG3004, “I have sinnedG264 by betrayingG3860 innocentG121 bloodG129.” But they saidG3004, “WhatG5101 is that to us? 4SeeG3708 to that yourselfG4771!”

5And he threwG4496 the piecesG694 of silverG694 into 5the templeG3485 sanctuaryG3485 and departedG402; and 6he wentG565 awayG565 and hangedG519 himself.

6The chiefG749 priestsG749 tookG2983 the piecesG694 of silverG694 and saidG3004, “It is not lawfulG1832 to putG906 them into the templeG2878 treasuryG2878, sinceG1893 it is the priceG5092 of bloodG129.”

7And they conferredG4824G2983 togetherG4824 and 7with the moneyG846 boughtG59 the Potter’sG2763 FieldG68 as a burialG5027 placeG5027 for strangersG3581.

88For thisG1352 reasonG1352 that fieldG68 has been calledG2564 the FieldG68 of BloodG129 to thisG4594 dayG4594.

9ThenG5119 that which was spokenG3004 throughG1223 JeremiahG2408 the prophetG4396 was fulfilledG4137: “9And 10they tookG2983 the thirtyG5144 piecesG694 of silverG694, the priceG5092 of the one whoseG3739 priceG5091 had been setG5091 by the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474;
