b'Matthew 26:69-27:10 69 Now Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. \\u201cYou also were with Jesus of Galilee,\\u201d she said. 70 But he denied it before them all. \\u201cI don\\u2019t know what you\\u2019re talking about,\\u201d he said. 71 Then he went out to the gateway, where another girl saw him and said to the people there, \\u201cThis fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth.\\u201d 72 He denied it again, with an oath: \\u201cI don\\u2019t know the man!\\u201d 73 After a little while, those standing there went up to Peter and said, \\u201cSurely you are one of them, for your accent gives you away.\\u201d 74 Then he began to call down curses on himself and he swore to them, \\u201cI don\\u2019t know the man!\\u201d Immediately a rooster crowed. 75 Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: \\u201cBefore the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.\\u201d And he went outside and wept bitterly. 1Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people came to the decision to put Jesus to death. 2 They bound him, led him away and handed him over to Pilate, the governor. 3 When Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was seized with remorse and returned the thirty silver coins to the chief priests and the elders. 4 \\u201cI have sinned,\\u201d he said, \\u201cfor I have betrayed innocent blood.\\u201d \\u201cWhat is that to us?\\u201d they replied. \\u201cThat\\u2019s your responsibility.\\u201d 5 So Judas threw the money into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself. 6 The chief priests picked up the coins and said, \\u201cIt is against the law to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.\\u201d 7 So they decided to use the money to buy the potter\\u2019s field as a burial place for foreigners. 8 That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day. 9 Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: \\u201cThey took the thirty silver coins, the price set on him by the people of Israel, 10 and they used them to buy the potter\\u2019s field, as the Lord commanded me.\\u201d'
