But the chief priests took the silver pieces and said, "It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because they are the price of blood."
7
And they consulted together and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.
8
Therefore 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 pieces of silver, the value of Him who was priced, whom they of the children of Israel priced,
10
and gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord directed me."

Now Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked Him, saying, "Are You the King of the Jews?" So Jesus said to him, "It is as you say."
12

13
Then Pilate said to Him, "Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?"
14

Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished.
16
And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
