Matthew 27:17-22

17When thereforeG3767 they were gatheredG4863 togetherG4863, PilateG4091 saidG3004 unto them, Whom will ye that I releaseG630 unto you? BarabbasG912, or JesusG2424 who is called ChristG5547? 18For he knew that for envyG5355 they had deliveredG3860 him up. 19And while he was sittingG2521 on the judgment-seat, his wifeG1135 sentG649 unto him, sayingG3004, Have thou nothingG3367 to do with that righteousG1342 manG1342; for I have sufferedG3958 manyG4183 thingsG4183 this dayG4594 in a dreamG3677 because of him. 20NowG1161 the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 persuadedG3982 the multitudesG3793 that they should askG154 for BarabbasG912, and destroyG622 JesusG2424. 21But the governorG2232 answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto them, Which of the twoG1417 will ye that I releaseG630 unto you? And they saidG3004, BarabbasG912. 22PilateG4091 saith unto them, What thenG3767 shall I do unto JesusG2424 who is called ChristG5547? They all sayG3004, Let him be crucifiedG4717.
