Matiyah replaces Yehudah Iskariot

Acts 1:12–26

1:12 Matiyah replaces Yehudah Iskariot

12 Then they walked down the Mt. of Olives and returned to Yerushalem (Jerusalem) which was less than a kilometre away. 13 They went into the upstairs room where they were staying—Kefa (Peter; Grk. Petros) and Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes), Ya’akov (James; Grk. Yakobos) and Andreas, Filippos (Philip) and Toma (Thomas), Bar -Talmay (Bartholomew; Grk. Bartholomaios) and Matay (Matthew; Grk. Matthaios), Ya’akov (son of Halfay (Grk. Halfaios)), Shim’on (Simon) (the Zealot member), and Yehudah (Judas; Grk. Yudas) (son of Ya’akov).[ref] 14 They were united in their ongoing prayers, along with Maria (Mary; Heb. Miryam; Grk. Maria /Mariam) the mother of Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus), and his brothers.

15 Then one day, Kefa stood up in the meeting of the believers (about 120 of them) and said, 16 “Brothers, it was necessary for the scripture to be fulfilled, where the holy spirit had spoken previously through David about Yehudah, the one who guided those that arrested Yeshua 17 because Yehudah was one of us and took his part in our work.

18 (Yehudah had bought a field with the money he had received for his treachery, and when he had fallen down in that field, his stomach had burst open and his intestines had slid out on the ground.[ref] 19 So everyone in Yerushalem started calling that place ‘The field of blood’.)

20 Now it was written in the scroll of songs:

‘Let his place become deserted with no one living there,’[ref]

‘Let another person take his position.’[ref]

21 So now it’s appropriate for one of the men that has been with us for the whole time that the master Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) was interacting with us, 22 from Yeshua’s immersion by Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes)[ref] until the day that he was lifted up from us into the clouds[ref]—a witness of the resurrection—to fill this position.

23 So they selected two men: Yosef (Joseph) Bar-Saba (nicknamed Yustos) and Matiyah (Grk. Matthias). 24 Then they requested, “Master, you know everyone’s inner thoughts, so reveal to us which of these two that you have chosen 25 to take this position of service and being a missionary—the position that Yehudah (Judas; Grk. Yudas) deserted to go to his own place.” 26 So they drew straws and Matiyah was marked so he was chosen to join the eleven missionaries.

17 Because he _was having _been _numbered with us, and obtained the an_allotment of_ the this _service.

18 (Therefore indeed this man acquired a_field out _of the_reward of_ the _unrighteousness, and having _become headlong, he _burst _open in_the_middle, and all the intestines of _him was _poured _out.

field of _blood.

let_ another _take The overseeing of _him.

21 Therefore it _is _fitting of _the men having _come _together with _us, at all the_time that the master Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) came _in and came _out with us,

22 having _begun from the immersion of _Yōannaʸs until the day in _which he _was _taken _up from us, a_witness of _the resurrection of _him with us, to _become one of _these.

23 And they _set two, Yōsaʸf/(Yōşēf) which being _called Barsabbas, who was _called Youstos, and Matthias.

24 And having _prayed, they _said:
You master, heart _knower of _all, reveal which one you _chose of these the two,

25 to _take the this place of_ the _service and commission, from which Youdas/(Yəhūdāh) broke _from, to _be _gone to his the own place.

26 And they _gave lots to _them, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he _was _chosen _together _with with the eleven ambassadors.

Mat 27:3-8:

27:3 Yehudah’ regret and suicide

3 When Yehudah (Judas; Grk. Yudas), (the one who had turned him in) saw that he was being sentenced to death, he regretted his actions and returned the payment to the chief priests and elders 4 saying, “I’ve sinned and turned in an innocent man.”

“What’s that got to do with us?” they asked. “You sort out your own problems.”

5 Then Yehudah threw the money down on the temple floor and went off and hanged himself.

6 The chief priests took the money and decided, “We can’t legally deposit the money to the temple treasury because it’s blood money.” 7 They got advice and decided to buy the potter’s field that was for sale to make it a cemetery for people from out of town, 8 so that place got called ‘The field of blood’[ref] until today.
