5. After tossing the silver into the Temple sanctuary, he left. Then he went off and hanged himself.
6. But the ruling kohanim took the silver pieces and said, “It is not permitted to put these in the treasury, since it is blood money.”
7. So after they conferred, they bought with them the potter’s field, as a cemetery for strangers.
8. For this reason that field has been called the “Field of Blood” to this day.
9. Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “And they took the thirty silver pieces, the price of Him on whom a price had been set by Bnei-Yisrael;
10. and they gave them for the potter’s field, just as Adonai arranged for me.”
11. Now Yeshua stood before the governor. The governor questioned Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You say so,” Yeshua said.
12. And while He was accused by the ruling kohanim and elders, He did not answer.
13. Then Pilate said to Him, “Don’t You hear how many things they testify against you?”
14. Yeshua did not answer, not even one word, so the governor was greatly amazed.
