Matthew 27:20-23

20But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to 1ask for Barabbas and to put Jesus to death. 21But the governor 2said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.” 22Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus 3who is called Christ?” They all said, “4Crucify Him!” 23And he said, “Why, what evil has He done?” But they kept shouting all the more, saying, “5Crucify Him!”
