But Pilate answered them ,
saying , "
Do you desire that I release to you the King of the Jews ?"
*
For he knew that because of envy the chief priests had delivered Him up .
*
But the chief priests stirred up the crowd ,
so that he should rather release Barabbas to them .
*
But Pilate answered and said to them again , "
What then do you desire [
that ]
I should do [
with Him ]
whom you call King of the Jews ?"
*
And again they cried , "
Crucify Him !"
*
But Pilate said to them , "
Why ,
what evil did He do ?"
But they cried out all the more , "
Crucify Him !"
*
So Pilate ,
wanting to gratify the crowd ,
released Barabbas to them ;
and he delivered up Jesus ,
after he had Him flogged ,
so that He might be crucified .
