Matthew 27:24-29

24And Pilate, seeing that it availed nothing, but that rather a tumult was arising, having taken water, washed his hands before the crowd, saying, I am guiltless of the blood of this righteous one: see ye [to it].

25And all the people answering said, His blood [be] on us and on our children.

26Then he released to them Barabbas; but Jesus, having scourged [him], he delivered up that he might be crucified.

27Then the soldiers of the governor, having taken Jesus with [them] to the praetorium, gathered against him the whole band,

28and having taken off his garment, put on him a scarlet cloak;

29and having woven a crown out of thorns, they put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and, bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
