Mark 15:9-19

9 Pilate answered them, saying, "Do you you want me to release to you the King of the Yehudim?"

10 For he perceived that for envy the chief Kohanim had delivered him up.

11 But the chief Kohanim stirred up the multitude, that he should release Bar-Abba to them instead.

12 Pilate again asked them, "What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Yehudim?"

13 They cried out again, "Crucify him!"

14 Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they cried out exceedingly, "Crucify him!"

15 Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Bar-Abba to them, and delivered Yeshua, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.

16 The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.

17 They clothed him with purple, and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.

18 They began to salute him, "Hail, King of the Yehudim!"

19 They struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and bowing their knees, did homage to him.
