Matthew 27:20-25

ACV(i) 20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. 21 Now the governor having answered, he said to them, Which of the two do ye want I would release to you? And they said, Barabbas. 22 Pilate says to them, What then shall I do to Jesus who is called Christ? They all say to him, He should be crucified. 23 And the governor said, For what evil has he done? But they cried out even more, saying, He should be crucified. 24 And when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but rather an uproar was developing, after taking water, he washed his hands in front of the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man. See ye to it. 25 And having answered, all the people said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
