John:19:12-16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him :
but the Jews cried out ,
saying ,
If thou let this man go ,
thou art not Caesar '
s friend :
whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar .
*
When Pilate therefore heard that saying ,
he brought Jesus forth ,
and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement ,
but in the Hebrew ,
Gabbatha .
*
And it was the preparation of the passover ,
and about the sixth hour :
and he saith unto the Jews ,
Behold your King !
*
But they cried out ,
Away with him ,
away with him ,
crucify him .
Pilate saith unto them ,
Shall I crucify your King ?
The chief priests answered ,
We have no king but Caesar .
*
Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified .
And they took Jesus ,
and led him away .
