Matthew 27:19

16 And they had then an important prisoner, whose name was Barabbas.

17 So when they came together, Pilate said to them, Whom will you have? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is named Christ?

18 For he saw that for envy they had given him up.

19 And while he was on the judge's seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that upright man, for I have had much trouble this day in a dream because of him.

20 Now the chief priests and those in authority got the people to make request for Barabbas, and for Jesus to be put to death.

21 But the ruler made answer and said to them, Which of the two is it your pleasure that I let go free? And they said, Barabbas.

22 Pilate says to them, What, then, am I to do with Jesus, who is named Christ? They all say, Let him be put to death on the cross.
