Matthew 27:8 in Context — Matthew 27

6 Os chefes dos sacerdotes tomaram as [moedas] de prata, e disseram: Não é lícito pô-las no tesouro das ofertas, pois isto é preço de sangue.

7 Então juntamente se aconselharam, e compraram com elas o campo do oleiro, para ser cemitério dos estrangeiros.

8 Por isso aquele campo tem sido chamado campo de sangue até hoje.

9 Assim se cumpriu o que foi dito pelo profeta Jeremias, que disse: Tomaram as trinta [moedas] de prata, preço avaliado pelos filhos de Israel, o qual eles avaliaram;

10 e as deram pelo campo do oleiro, conforme o que o Senhor me mandou.
