13And they said again loudly, To the cross with him!
14And Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? But their cry was the louder, To the cross!
15And Pilate, desiring to do what was pleasing to the people, let Barabbas go free, and gave up Jesus, when he had been whipped, to be put to death on the cross.
16And the men of the army took him away into the square in front of the building which is the Praetorium, and they got together all the band.
17And they put a purple robe on him, and twisting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;
18And, as if honouring him, they said, Long life to the King of the Jews!
19And they gave him blows on the head with a stick and put shame on him and, going down on their knees, gave him worship.
