Judas hangs himself

Saint Matthew - Chapter 27

[5] Et projectis argenteis in templo, recessit : et abiens laqueo se suspendit.
And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed: and went and hanged himself with an halter.

Acts of the Apostles - Chapter 1


Judas hangs himself. J-J Tissot
[16] Viri fratres, oportet impleri Scripturam, quam praedixit Spiritus Sanctus per os David de Juda, qui fuit dux eorum, qui comprehenderunt Jesum :
Men, brethren, the scripture must needs be fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was the leader of them that apprehended Jesus:

[17] qui connumeratus erat in nobis, et sortitus est sortem ministerii hujus.
Who was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

[18] Et hic quidem possedit agrum de mercede iniquitatis, et suspensus crepuit medius : et diffusa sunt omnia viscera ejus.
And he indeed hath possessed a field of the reward of iniquity, and being hanged, burst asunder in the midst: and all his bowels gushed out.

[19] Et notum factum est omnibus habitantibus Jerusalem, ita ut appellaretur ager ille, lingua eorum, Haceldama, hoc est, ager sanguinis.
And it became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so that the same field was called in their tongue, Haceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.

Totus tuus ego sum 
Et omnia mea tua sunt;
Tecum semper tutus sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
