Mattityahu 27:9-19 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

9. Then that which was spoken through Yirmeyah HaNavi was fulfilled, saying, And they took the SHELOSHIM KASEF (thirty pieces of silver), HAYEKAR (the price) of the one whose price had been set by the Bnei Yisroel.

10. And they gave them for the potters field as Hashem directed. [ZECHARYAH 11:12-13]

11. Now Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach stood before the Governor, and the Governor questioned Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saying, Are you the Melech HaYehudim? And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, It is as you say.

12. And while Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was being accused by the Rashei Hakohanim and the Zekenim, he answered nothing [YESHAYAH 53:7].

13. Then Pilate said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Do you not hear how many things they give edut against you?

14. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach did not answer him with even one word, so that the Governor was quite amazed.[YESHAYAH 53:7]

15. Now at the Chag (Festival, Pesach) the Governor was accustomed to release for the multitude any one prisoner they wanted.

16. And they were holding at the time a notorious prisoner, called [Yeshua] Bar-Abba [son of the father].

17. When, therefore, they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom do you want me to release for you, Bar Abba or Yehoshua called Moshiach?

18. For Pilate knew that because of kinah (envy) they had delivered Yehoshua up.

19. And while Pilate was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that Tzaddik; for last night I suffered greatly in a chalom (dream) because of Yehoshua.
