Matthew 27:8-18

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 on him upon whom a price had been set, whom some of the children of Israel did price,
10 and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord commanded me."
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus said to him, "So you say."
12 When he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Then Pilate said to him, "Don't you hear how many things they testify against you?"
14 He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.
15 Now at the feast the governor used to release to the multitude one prisoner, whom they wanted.
16 They had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?"
18 For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up.
