Matthew 27:19 YLT

¹⁷  they therefore having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, 'Whom will ye I shall release to you? Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?'

¹⁸  for he had known that because of envy they had delivered him up.

¹⁹  And as he is sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent unto him, saying, 'Nothing -- to thee and to that righteous one, for many things did I suffer to-day in a dream because of him.'

²⁰  And the chief priests and the elders did persuade the multitudes that they might ask for themselves Barabbas, and might destroy Jesus;

²¹  and the governor answering said to them, 'Which of the two will ye 'that' I shall release to you?' And they said, 'Barabbas.'
