New International Version

⁶The chief priests picked up the coins and said, “It is against the law to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.”

⁷And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

⁷So they decided to use the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.

¹⁰And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

¹⁰and they used them to buy the potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.”^[a]^(A)
