Matthew 27:11-35

11But JesusG2424 stoodG2476 before the governorG2232. And the governorG2232 questionedG1905 him, sayingG3004, Art thou the KingG935 of the JewsG2453? And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, Thou sayest.

12And when he was accusedG2723 of the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245, he answeredG611 nothing.

13ThenG5119 saysG3004 PilateG4091 to him, Hearest thou not howG4214 manyG4214 things they witness against thee?

14And he answeredG611 him not so much as oneG1520 word, so that the governorG2232 wonderedG2296 exceedinglyG3029.

15NowG1161 at [the] feastG1859 the governorG2232 was accustomedG1486 to releaseG630 oneG1520 prisonerG1198 to the crowdG3793, whom they wouldG2309.

16And they had thenG5119 a notable prisonerG1198, named BarabbasG912.

17They thereforeG3767 being gatheredG4863 togetherG4863, PilateG4091 saidG3004 to them, Whom will ye that I releaseG630 to you, BarabbasG912, or JesusG2424 who is called ChristG5547?

18For he knew that they had deliveredG3860 him up through envyG5355.

19But, as he was sittingG2521 on the judgment-seat, his wifeG1135 sentG649 to him, sayingG3004, Have thou nothingG3367 to do with that righteousG1342 [manG1342]; for I have sufferedG3958 to-day manyG4183 thingsG4183 in a dreamG3677 because of him.

20But the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 persuadedG3982 the crowdsG3793 that they should beg for BarabbasG912, and destroyG622 JesusG2424.

21And the governorG2232 answeringG611 saidG3004 to them, Which of the twoG1417 will ye that I releaseG630 unto you? And they saidG3004, BarabbasG912.

22PilateG4091 saysG3004 to them, What thenG3767 shall I do with JesusG2424, who is called ChristG5547? They all sayG3004, Let him be crucifiedG4717.

23And the governor saidG3004, What evilG2556 thenG1161 has he done? But they criedG2896 more than ever, sayingG3004, Let him be crucifiedG4717.

24And PilateG4091, seeingG3708 that it availed nothing, but that ratherG3123 a tumult wasG1510 arising, having taken waterG5204, washed his handsG5495 before the crowdG3793, sayingG3004, I amG1510 guiltless of the bloodG129 of this righteous oneG3762: seeG3708 ye [to it].

25And all the peopleG2992 answeringG611 saidG3004, His bloodG129 [be] on us and on our childrenG5043.

26ThenG5119 he releasedG630 to them BarabbasG912; but JesusG2424, having scourged [him], he deliveredG3860 up that he might be crucifiedG4717.

27ThenG5119 the soldiersG4757 of the governorG2232, having takenG3880 JesusG2424 with [them] to the praetoriumG4232, gatheredG4863 against him the wholeG3650 band,

28and having taken off his garment, putG4060 on him a scarletG2847 cloak;

29and having woven a crownG4735 out of thornsG173, they putG2007 it on his headG2776, and a reedG2563 in his rightG1188 handG1188; and, bowing the knee before him, they mockedG1702 him, sayingG3004, HailG5463, KingG935 of the JewsG2453!

30And having spitG1716 upon him, they tookG2983 the reedG2563 and beatG5180 [him] on his headG2776.

31And whenG3753 they had mockedG1702 him, they took the cloakG2440 off him, and putG1746 his own clothesG2440 on him, and ledG520 him awayG520 to crucifyG4717.

32And as they wentG1831 forthG1831 they foundG2147 a manG444 of CyreneG2956, SimonG4613 by nameG3686; him they compelled to goG1831 [with them] that he might bearG142 his crossG4716.

33And having comeG2064 to a placeG5117 called GolgothaG1115, which means PlaceG5117 of a skullG2898,

34they gaveG1325 to him to drinkG4095 vinegar mingled with gallG5521; and having tastedG1089 [it], he would not drinkG4095.

35And having crucifiedG4717 him, they parted his clothesG2440 amongst [themselves], castingG906 lotsG2819.
