| 13 | Pilate then called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people, | Jesus Sentenced to Die Lk.23.13-25 (Jerusalem) | Mt.27.15-26 | Mk.15.6-15 | Jn.18.39-19.16 |
| 14 | and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and after examining him before you, behold, I did not find this man guilty of any of your charges against him; | |
| 15 | neither did Herod, for he sent him back to us. Behold, nothing deserving death has been done by him; | |
| 16 | I will therefore chastise him and release him." | |
| 17 | Here or after verse 19, other ancient authorities add verse 17 Now he was obliged to release one man to them at the festival | |
| 18 | But they all cried out together, "Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas" - | |
| 19 | a man who had been thrown into prison for an insurrection started in the city, and for murder. | |
| 20 | Pilate addressed them once more, desiring to release Jesus; | |
| 21 | but they shouted out, "Crucify, crucify him!" | |
| 22 | A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done? I have found in him no crime deserving death; I will therefore chastise him and release him." | |
| 23 | But they were urgent, demanding with loud cries that he should be crucified. And their voices prevailed. | |
| 24 | So Pilate gave sentence that their demand should be granted. | |
| 25 | He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will. | |
