23 The governor said to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying: Let him be crucified.
23 “Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate. But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!”
24 And Pilate seeing that he prevailed nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, taking water washed his hands before the people, saying: I am innocent of the blood of this just man. Look you to it.
24 When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!”
