Matthew:27:11-26
ylt@Matthew:27:11 @And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor did question him, saying, 'Art thou the king of the Jews!' And Jesus said to him, 'Thou sayest.'
ylt@Matthew:27:12 @And in his being accused by the chief priests and the elders, he did not answer any thing,
ylt@Matthew:27:13 @then saith Pilate to him, 'Dost thou not hear how many things they witness against thee?'
ylt@Matthew:27:14 @And he did not answer him, not even to one word, so that the governor did wonder greatly.
ylt@Matthew:27:15 @And at the feast the governor had been accustomed to release one to the multitude, a prisoner, whom they willed,
ylt@Matthew:27:16 @and they had then a noted prisoner, called Barabbas,
ylt@Matthew:27:17 @they therefore having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, 'Whom will ye I shall release to you? Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?'
ylt@Matthew:27:18 @for he had known that because of envy they had delivered him up.
ylt@Matthew:27:19 @And as he is sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent unto him, saying, 'Nothing -- to thee and to that righteous one, for many things did I suffer to-day in a dream because of him.'
ylt@Matthew:27:20 @And the chief priests and the elders did persuade the multitudes that they might ask for themselves Barabbas, and might destroy Jesus;
ylt@Matthew:27:21 @and the governor answering said to them, 'Which of the two will ye [that] I shall release to you?' And they said, 'Barabbas.'
ylt@Matthew:27:22 @Pilate saith to them, 'What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?' They all say to him, 'Let be crucified!'
ylt@Matthew:27:23 @And the governor said, 'Why, what evil did he?' and they were crying out the more, saying, 'Let be crucified.'
ylt@Matthew:27:24 @And Pilate having seen that it profiteth nothing, but rather a tumult is made, having taken water, he did wash the hands before the multitude, saying, 'I am innocent from the blood of this righteous one; ye -- ye shall see;'
ylt@Matthew:27:25 @and all the people answering said, 'His blood [is] upon us, and upon our children!'
ylt@Matthew:27:26 @Then did he release to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered [him] up that he may be crucified;
