3

Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

4

saying, I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood. But they said, What is that to us? see thou [to it].

5

And he cast down the pieces of silver into the sanctuary, and departed and he went away and hanged himself.

6

And the chief priests took the pieces of silver, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood.

7

And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

8

Wherefore that field was called, the field of blood, unto this day.

9

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was priced, whom [certain] of the children of Israel did price

10

and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
