*
And Pilate answered them ,
saying ,
Do ye wish that I would release to you the king of the Jews ?
*
For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up because of envy .
*
But the chief priests incited the crowd ,
so that he would release Barabbas to them instead .
*
And again having answered ,
Pilate said to them ,
What then do ye wish I would do to the man whom ye call the king of the Jews ?
*
And they cried out again ,
Crucify him .
*
And Pilate said to them ,
For what evil has he done ?
But they cried out even more ,
Crucify him .
*
And Pilate ,
wanting to do what was sufficent for the crowd ,
released Barabbas to them .
And he delivered Jesus ,
after scourging ,
so that he might be crucified .
