Matthew 27:11-30

11AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 stoodG2476 beforeG1715 the governorG3588G2232: andG2532 the governorG3588G2232 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, ArtG1510 thouG4771 the KingG3588G935 of the JewsG3588G2453? AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG5346 unto himG846, ThouG4771 sayestG3004. 12AndG2532 whenG1722 heG846 was accusedG2723 ofG5259 the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 eldersG3588G4245, he answeredG611 nothingG3762. 13ThenG5119 saidG3004 PilateG3588G4091 unto himG846, Hearest thouG191 notG3756 how many thingsG4214 they witness againstG2649 theeG4771? 14AndG2532 he answeredG611 himG846 toG4314 neverG3756 aG1520 wordG4487; insomuch thatG5620 the governorG3588G2232 marvelledG2296 greatlyG3029. 15NowG1161 atG2596 that feastG1859 the governorG3588G2232 was wontG1486 to releaseG630 untoG1520 the peopleG3588G3793 a prisonerG1198, whomG3739 they wouldG2309. 16AndG1161 they hadG2192 thenG5119 a notableG1978 prisonerG1198, calledG3004 BarabbasG912. 17Therefore whenG3767 theyG846 were gathered togetherG4863, PilateG3588G4091 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhomG5101 will yeG2309 that I releaseG630 unto youG4771? BarabbasG912, orG2228 JesusG2424 which is calledG3588G3004 ChristG5547? 18ForG1063 he knewG1492 thatG3754 forG1223 envyG5355 they had deliveredG3860 himG846.

19WhenG1161 heG846 was set downG2521 onG1909 the judgment seatG3588G968, hisG846 wifeG3588G1135 sentG649 untoG4314 himG846, sayingG3004, HaveG3367 thouG4771 nothing to doG3367 withG2532 thatG1565 just manG3588G1342: forG1063 I have sufferedG3958 many thingsG4183 this dayG4594 inG2596 a dreamG3677 because ofG1223 himG846. 20ButG1161 the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 eldersG3588G4245 persuadedG3982 the multitudeG3588G3793 thatG2443 they should askG154 BarabbasG3588G912, andG1161 destroyG622 JesusG3588G2424. 21The governorG3588G2232 answeredG611 andG1161 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhetherG5101 ofG575 the twainG1417 will yeG2309 that I releaseG630 unto youG4771? TheyG3588 saidG3004, BarabbasG912. 22PilateG3588G4091 saithG3004 unto themG846, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160 thenG3767 with JesusG2424 which is calledG3588G3004 ChristG5547? They allG3956 say untoG3004 himG846, Let him be crucifiedG4717. 23AndG1161 the governorG2232 saidG5346, WhyG5101, whatG1063 evilG2556 hath he doneG4160? ButG1161 theyG3588 cried outG2896 the moreG4057, sayingG3004, Let him be crucifiedG4717.

24WhenG1161 PilateG3588G4091 sawG3708 thatG3754 he could prevailG5623 nothingG3762, butG235 that ratherG3123 a tumultG2351 was madeG1096, he tookG2983 waterG5204, and washedG633 his handsG3588G5495 beforeG561 the multitudeG3588G3793, sayingG3004, I amG1510 innocentG121 ofG575 the bloodG3588G129 of thisG3778 just personG1342: seeG3708 yeG4771 to it. 25ThenG2532 answeredG611 allG3956 the peopleG3588G2992, and saidG3004, HisG846 bloodG3588G129 be onG1909 usG1473, andG2532 onG1909 ourG1473 childrenG3588G5043.

26ThenG5119 released heG630 BarabbasG3588G912 unto themG846: andG1161 when he had scourgedG5417 JesusG2424, he deliveredG3860 him toG2443 be crucifiedG4717. 27ThenG5119 the soldiersG3588G4757 of the governorG3588G2232 tookG3880 JesusG3588G2424 intoG1519 the common hallG3588G4232, and gatheredG4863 untoG1909 himG846 the wholeG3650 bandG3588G4686 of soldiers. 28AndG2532 they strippedG1562 himG846, and put onG4060 himG846 a scarletG2847 robeG5511.

29AndG2532 when they had plattedG4120 a crownG4735 ofG1537 thornsG173, they putG2007 it uponG1909 hisG846 headG3588G2776, andG2532 a reedG2563 inG1909 hisG846 right handG1188: andG2532 they bowed the kneeG1120 beforeG1715 himG846, and mockedG1702 himG846, sayingG3004, HailG5463, KingG3588G935 of the JewsG2453! 30AndG2532 they spitG1716 uponG1519 himG846, and tookG2983 the reedG3588G2563, andG2532 smoteG5180 himG846 onG1519 the headG3588G2776.
