Acts 1:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ He had been one of us and had been given an active role in this ministry. ¹⁸ With the money he received from the wrong he had done, he bought a piece of land where he fell headfirst to his death. His body split open, and all his internal organs came out. ¹⁹ Everyone living in Jerusalem knows about this. They even call that piece of land Akeldama, which means ‘Field of Blood’ in their dialect.
