kjv@Matthew:27:11@ And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.
kjv@Matthew:27:12@ And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
kjv@Matthew:27:13@ Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?
kjv@Matthew:27:14@ And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.
kjv@Matthew:27:15@ Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.
kjv@Matthew:27:16@ And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
kjv@Matthew:27:17@ Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
kjv@Matthew:27:18@ For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
kjv@Matthew:27:19@ When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
kjv@Matthew:27:20@ But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
kjv@Matthew:27:21@ The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.
kjv@Matthew:27:22@ Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
kjv@Matthew:27:23@ And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
kjv@Matthew:27:24@ When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
kjv@Matthew:27:25@ Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
kjv@Matthew:27:26@ Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
kjv@Matthew:27:27@ Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
kjv@Matthew:27:28@ And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
kjv@Matthew:27:29@ And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
kjv@Matthew:27:30@ And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
kjv@Matthew:27:31@ And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
kjv@Matthew:27:32@ And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
kjv@Matthew:27:33@ And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
kjv@Matthew:27:34@ They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
kjv@Matthew:27:35@ And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
