6 Y los príncipes de los sacerdotes, tomando [las piezas] de plata, dijeron: No es lícito echarlas en el tesoro de los dones, porque es precio de sangre.

7 Mas habido consejo, compraron con ellas el campo del alfarero, por sepultura para los extranjeros.

8 Por lo cual fué llamado aquel campo, Campo de sangre, hasta el día de hoy.

9 Entonces se cumplió lo que fué dicho por el profeta Jeremías, que dijo: Y tomaron las treinta [piezas] de plata, precio del apreciado, que fué apreciado por los hijos de Israel;

10 Y las dieron para el campo del alfarero, como me ordenó el Señor.
