Emptum tamen pretio sanguinis agrum figuli non possedit, qui traditionis crimen in se protinus mulctavit, sed possedit dictum est pro possideri fecit. Quidam agrum a Juda possessum ridicule exponunt infernum. Alii possedisse agrum illum existimant, ex eo quod cum peregrinis in eo sepultus fuit. Viscera. Viscera quæ sunt sedes fraudis, tanto scelere dirupta, se cohibere non valuerunt. Merito autem per sedem doli viscera funduntur, non per locum osculi, id est os quo osculatus est Jesum, quamvis falsa superficie, sed per alium cui virus occultæ malitiæ inerat.
1.18 Possedit agrum. Non because agrum possederit, but because ipsius fuerat pretium agri who Dominum of_life vendidit. Amissa earth/land viventium, agrum blood and mortis, æterna sceleris and nominis sui memoria possidet Yudas. Emptum tamen pretio blood agrum figuli not/no possedit, who traditionis crimen in se protinus mulctavit, but possedit dictum it_is for possideri fecit. Quidam agrum from Yuda possessum ridicule exponunt infernum. Alii possedisse agrum him existimant, from eo that when/with peregrinis in eo sepultus fuit. Viscera. Viscera which are sedes fraudis, tanto scelere dirupta, se cohibere not/no valuerunt. Merito however through sedem doli viscera funduntur, not/no through place osculi, id it_is os quo osculatus it_is Yesum, quamvis falsa superficie, but through alium cui virus occultæ malitiæ inerat.
UGNT (οὗτος μὲν οὖν ἐκτήσατο χωρίον ἐκ μισθοῦ τῆς ἀδικίας, καὶ πρηνὴς γενόμενος, ἐλάκησεν μέσος, καὶ ἐξεχύθη πάντα τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ.
((houtos men oun ektaʸsato ⱪōrion ek misthou taʸs adikias, kai praʸnaʸs genomenos, elakaʸsen mesos, kai exeⱪuthaʸ panta ta splagⱪna autou.)
SBL-GNT Οὗτος μὲν οὖν ἐκτήσατο χωρίον ἐκ μισθοῦ τῆς ἀδικίας, καὶ πρηνὴς γενόμενος ἐλάκησεν μέσος, καὶ ἐξεχύθη πάντα τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ.

1:13-26 While the apostles waited for the promised gift of the Holy Spirit (1:4-5), the whole company of 120 disciples in Jerusalem engaged in earnest prayer (1:13-14) and then appointed an apostle to replace Judas Iscariot (1:15-26).
Note 1 topic: writing-background
μὲν οὖν
indeed therefore
Luke is using this expression to introduce further background information that he provides in this verse and the next one about how Judas died and about what people called the field where he died. This is not part of Peter’s speech. You may want to indicate that by putting these verses in parentheses or by using the equivalent convention in your language.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
οὗτος
this_‹man›
Luke is using the demonstrative adjective this as a noun to refer to a specific person, Judas. (ULT shows that by adding one.) Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could state “he” or use the name “Judas.”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἐκ μισθοῦ τῆς ἀδικίας
out_of /the/_reward ¬the ˱of˲_unrighteousness
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word unrighteousness, you could express the same idea with an adjective such as “unrighteous.” Alternate translation: “with the money that he received for doing an unrighteous deed”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἐκ μισθοῦ τῆς ἀδικίας
out_of /the/_reward ¬the ˱of˲_unrighteousness
Luke is using the term unrighteousness to describe Judas betraying Jesus, by association with the way that was an unrighteous thing to do. Alternate translation: “with the money that he received for betraying Jesus”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πρηνὴς γενόμενος
headlong /having/_become
Be sure that it is clear in your translation that Judas did not just trip and fall accidentally. Rather, his body forcefully hit the field as he was killing himself. Alternate translation: “in his attempt to kill himself his body struck that field”
πρηνὴς γενόμενος
headlong /having/_become
The word headfirst describes someone falling forward, as opposed to falling backwards. Alternate translation: “having fallen forward”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐξεχύθη πάντα τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ
/was/_poured_out all the intestines ˱of˲_him
If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this with an active form. Alternate translation: “all his inward parts poured out”
