5 And throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple, he departed, and he went and hanged himself.

6 But the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is blood money.”

7 So they took counsel and bought with them the potter’s field as a burial place for strangers.

8 Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day.
