12 Pilate again asked them, "What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?"
13 They cried out again, "Crucify him!"
14 Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they cried out exceedingly, "Crucify him!"
15 Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and delivered Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.
16 The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.
17 They clothed him with purple, and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.
