and said unto them, Ye brought unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people: and behold, I having examined him before you, found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him
15
no, nor yet Herod: for he sent him back unto us; and behold, nothing worthy of death hath been done by him.
16
I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
17
[Now he must needs release unto them at the feast one prisoner.]
18
But they cried out all together, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas: --
19
one who for a certain insurrection made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison
20
And Pilate spake unto them again, desiring to release Jesus;
21
but they shouted, saying, Crucify, crucify him
22
And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him and release him.
23
But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. And their voices prevailed.
24
And Pilate gave sentence that what they asked for should be done.
