Wherefore that field was called, the field of blood, unto this day.
9
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was priced, whom [certain] of the children of Israel did price;
10
and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
11
Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him,
Thou sayest.
12
And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13
Then saith Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?
14
And he gave him no answer, not even to one word: insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.
15
Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would.
16
And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17
When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?
18
For he knew that for envy they had delivered him up.
