Matthew 27:4-6

New Testament for Everyone

⁴ “I’ve sinned!” he said. “I betrayed an innocent man, and now I’ve got his blood on my hands!”

“See if we care!” they replied. “Deal with it yourself.”

⁵ And he threw down the money in the Temple, and left, and went and hanged himself.

⁶ “Well now,” said the chief priests, picking up the money. “According to the law, we can’t put it into the Temple treasury. It’s the price of someone’s blood.”
