6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver, and said, 'It's not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood.'
7 They took counsel, and bought the potter's field with them, to bury strangers in.
8 Therefore that field was called 'The Field of Blood' to this day.
9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, 'They took the thirty pieces of silver, The price of him upon whom a price had been set, Whom some of the children of Israel priced,
10 And they gave them for the potter's field, As the Lord commanded me.'
