Matthew 27:19 WBT

¹⁷  Therefore when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?

¹⁸  (For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.)

¹⁹  When he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream, because of him.

²⁰  But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

²¹  The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release to you? They said, Barabbas.
