New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Matthew 26
⁷⁵ And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, "Before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times." And he went out and wept bitterly.
Matthew 27
¹ Now when morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people conferred together against Jesus to put Him to death;
² and they bound Him, and led Him away and delivered Him to Pilate the governor.
³ Then when Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that He had been condemned, he felt remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
⁴ saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood." But they said, "What is that to us? See to that yourself!"
⁵ And he threw the pieces of silver into the temple sanctuary and departed; and he went away and hanged himself.
⁶ The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, "It is not lawful to put them into the temple treasury, since it is the price of blood."
⁷ And they conferred together and with the money bought the Potter’s Field as a burial place for strangers.
⁸ For this reason that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day.
⁹ Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: "And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the one whose price had been set by the sons of Israel;
¹⁰ and they gave them for the Potter’s Field, as the Lord directed me."
