16 “Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, awhich the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, bwho became a guide to those who arrested Jesus;
17 for ahe was numbered with us and obtained a part in bthis ministry.”
18 a(Now this man purchased a field with bthe wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his2 entrails gushed out.
19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood.)
20 “For it is written in the Book of Psalms:
a‘Let his dwelling place be1 desolate,
And let no one live in it’; and,
b‘Let another take his1 office.’
a‘Let his dwelling place be1 desolate,
And let no one live in it’; and,
b‘Let another take his1 office.’
