When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

 2 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to ^aPontius Pilate the governor.

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

 4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have ^abetrayed the innocent ^bblood. And they said, What is that to us? ^csee thou to that.

 5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went ^aand ^bhanged himself.

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

 7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the ^apotter's field, to bury ^bstrangers in.

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

 9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the ^athirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;

 10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

 11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, ^aThou sayest.

 12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered ^anothing.
