Matthew 27:5-7 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

5. Judas threw the money into the temple and then went out and hanged himself.

6. The chief priests picked up the money and said, “This money was paid to have a man killed. We can't put it in the temple treasury.”

7. Then they had a meeting and decided to buy a field that belonged to someone who made clay pots. They wanted to use it as a graveyard for foreigners.
