Matthew 27:6-8 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

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.

8. That's why people still call that place “Field of Blood”.
