Judas Hangs Himself
3 When Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus had been condemned, he regretted what he had done and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, 4 saying, "I have sinned by betraying 27:4 innocent ¦ righteous WHinnocent blood." But they said, "What is that to us? See to it yoʋrself." 5 So he threw the pieces of silver into the temple and departed. Then he went away and hanged himself. 6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, "It is not lawful to put them into the temple treasury, since they are a price paid for blood." 7 So they took counsel and used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.
