Then Judas, the one having betrayed Him, seeing that He was condemned, being seized with remorse, returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying, I sinned betraying the innocent blood.

And the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, It is not lawful to put them in the treasury, because it is the price of blood. And taking counsel, they purchased with them the field of the potter, for a burying place for strangers. Therefore that field has been called, The field of blood, to this day. Then the word having been spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, was fulfilled, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him that was valued, whom they of the sons of Israel did value; and they gave them for the field of the potter, as the Lord appointed me.

Jesus says to Him, He that is bathed hath no need to wash his hands, but is altogether clean: and you are clean, but not all. For He knew the one betraying Him. On this account He said, You are not all clean. Then when He washed their feet, and took His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, Do you understand what I have done to you? read more.
You call me Master and Lord, and you speak beautifully; for I am. If then I, your Lord and Master, washed your feet, you ought also to wash the feet of one another. For I have given unto you an example, that you may also do as I have done to you. Truly, truly, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; nor the apostle greater than him that sent him. If you know these things, happy are ye if you may do them. I do not speak concerning you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.

Jesus spoke these words; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, said, Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son, in order that the Son may glorify thee: as thou didst give Him authority over all flesh, in order that whatsoever thou hast given unto Him, He may give unto them eternal life. But this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou didst send. read more.
I glorified thee upon the earth, having finished the work that thou hast given to me that I may do it. And now, Father, glorify thou me with thyself with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name, to the men whom thou didst give me out of the world. They were thine, and thou didst give them to me; and they have kept thy word: now they know that all things so many as thou hast given to me are with thee: because the words which thou didst give me I have given unto them; and they received them, and they know truly that I came out from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me. I pray for these: I pray not for the world; but for those whom thou hast given me, because they are thine: and all mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I have been glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world, and they are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them through my name whom thou hast given unto me, in order that they may be one, as we are. When I was with them, I was keeping them in thy name whom thou hast given unto me. And I guarded them, and no one of them perished, except the son of perdition; that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

Men, brethren, it behooved the scripture which the Holy Ghost predicted through the mouth of David concerning Judas, the one becoming leader to those arresting Jesus, to be fulfilled; because he was numbered among us and received the lot of this ministry.
