Matthew 27:4-24

4SayingG3004, I have sinnedG264 in that I have betrayedG3860 the innocentG121 bloodG129. AndG1161 theyG3588 saidG3004, WhatG5101 is that toG4314 usG1473? seeG3708 thouG4771 to that. 5AndG2532 he cast downG4496 the pieces of silverG3588G694 inG1722 the templeG3588G3485, and departedG402, andG2532 wentG565 and hanged himselfG519. 6AndG1161 the chief priestsG749 tookG2983 the silver piecesG3588G694, and saidG3004, It isG906 notG3756 lawfulG1832 for to putG906 themG846 intoG1519 the treasuryG3588G2878, becauseG1893 it isG1510 the priceG5092 of bloodG129. 7AndG1161 they tookG2983 counselG4824, and boughtG59 withG1537 themG846 the potter’sG3588G2763 fieldG3588G68, to buryG5027 strangersG3581 inG1519. 8WhereforeG1352 thatG1565 fieldG3588G68 was calledG2564, The fieldG68 of bloodG129, untoG2193 this dayG4594. 9ThenG5119 was fulfilledG4137 that which was spokenG3588G2046 byG1223 JeremiahG2408 the prophetG3588G4396, sayingG3004, AndG2532 they tookG2983 theG3588G694 thirtyG5144 pieces of silverG3588G694, the priceG3588G5092 of him that was valuedG3588G5091, whomG3739 they of the childrenG5207 ofG575 IsraelG2474 did valueG5091; 10AndG2532 gaveG1325 themG846 forG1519 theG3588G68 potter’sG3588G2763 fieldG3588G68, asG2505 the LordG2962 appointedG4929 meG1473. 11AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 stoodG2476 beforeG1715 the governorG3588G2232: andG2532 the governorG3588G2232 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, ArtG1510 thouG4771 the KingG3588G935 of the JewsG3588G2453? AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG5346 unto himG846, ThouG4771 sayestG3004. 12AndG2532 whenG1722 heG846 was accusedG2723 ofG5259 the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 eldersG3588G4245, he answeredG611 nothingG3762. 13ThenG5119 saidG3004 PilateG3588G4091 unto himG846, Hearest thouG191 notG3756 how many thingsG4214 they witness againstG2649 theeG4771? 14AndG2532 he answeredG611 himG846 toG4314 neverG3756 aG1520 wordG4487; insomuch thatG5620 the governorG3588G2232 marvelledG2296 greatlyG3029. 15NowG1161 atG2596 that feastG1859 the governorG3588G2232 was wontG1486 to releaseG630 untoG1520 the peopleG3588G3793 a prisonerG1198, whomG3739 they wouldG2309. 16AndG1161 they hadG2192 thenG5119 a notableG1978 prisonerG1198, calledG3004 BarabbasG912. 17Therefore whenG3767 theyG846 were gathered togetherG4863, PilateG3588G4091 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhomG5101 will yeG2309 that I releaseG630 unto youG4771? BarabbasG912, orG2228 JesusG2424 which is calledG3588G3004 ChristG5547? 18ForG1063 he knewG1492 thatG3754 forG1223 envyG5355 they had deliveredG3860 himG846.

19WhenG1161 heG846 was set downG2521 onG1909 the judgment seatG3588G968, hisG846 wifeG3588G1135 sentG649 untoG4314 himG846, sayingG3004, HaveG3367 thouG4771 nothing to doG3367 withG2532 thatG1565 just manG3588G1342: forG1063 I have sufferedG3958 many thingsG4183 this dayG4594 inG2596 a dreamG3677 because ofG1223 himG846. 20ButG1161 the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 eldersG3588G4245 persuadedG3982 the multitudeG3588G3793 thatG2443 they should askG154 BarabbasG3588G912, andG1161 destroyG622 JesusG3588G2424. 21The governorG3588G2232 answeredG611 andG1161 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhetherG5101 ofG575 the twainG1417 will yeG2309 that I releaseG630 unto youG4771? TheyG3588 saidG3004, BarabbasG912. 22PilateG3588G4091 saithG3004 unto themG846, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160 thenG3767 with JesusG2424 which is calledG3588G3004 ChristG5547? They allG3956 say untoG3004 himG846, Let him be crucifiedG4717. 23AndG1161 the governorG2232 saidG5346, WhyG5101, whatG1063 evilG2556 hath he doneG4160? ButG1161 theyG3588 cried outG2896 the moreG4057, sayingG3004, Let him be crucifiedG4717.

24WhenG1161 PilateG3588G4091 sawG3708 thatG3754 he could prevailG5623 nothingG3762, butG235 that ratherG3123 a tumultG2351 was madeG1096, he tookG2983 waterG5204, and washedG633 his handsG3588G5495 beforeG561 the multitudeG3588G3793, sayingG3004, I amG1510 innocentG121 ofG575 the bloodG3588G129 of thisG3778 just personG1342: seeG3708 yeG4771 to it.
