Matthew 27:24 CPDV

²²  Pilate said to them, 'Then what shall I do about Jesus, who is called Christ?' They all said, 'Let him be crucified.'

²³  The procurator said to them, 'But what evil has he done?' But they cried out all the more, saying, 'Let him be crucified.'

²⁴  Then Pilate, seeing that he was able to accomplish nothing, but that a greater tumult was occurring, taking water, washed his hands in the sight of the people, saying: 'I am innocent of the blood of this just man. See to it yourselves.'

²⁵  And the entire people responded by saying, 'May his blood be upon us and upon our children.'

²⁶  Then he released Barabbas to them. But Jesus, having been scourged, he handed over to them, so that he would be crucified.
