Matthew 27:1-10 And when it was morning, the chief priests and the elders of the people held a council against Jesus, how they might put him to death.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And when it was morning, the chief priests and the elders of the people held a council against Jesus, how they might put him to death. ² And they bound him, and carried him and delivered him up to Pilate, the president. ³ Then Judas the betrayer, when he saw that Jesus was condemned, repented. And he went and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders; ⁴ and said: I have sinned, by betraying innocent blood. And they said: What is that to us? See to it thyself. ⁵ And he cast down the silver in the temple, and retiring, went and strangled himself ⁶ And the chief priests took up the silver, and said: It is not lawful to put it into the treasury, because it is the price of blood. ⁷ And they took counsel, and bought with it the potter's field, for a place to bury strangers. ⁸ Wherefore that field is called the field of blood, unto this day. ⁹ Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by the prophet, saying: I took the thirty shekels of silver, the price of the precious one, which they of the children of Israel had stipulated; ¹⁰ and I gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord directed me.
