RKJNT(i)
1 And immediately in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
2 And Pilate asked him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he said to him, You say so.
3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.
4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Have you no answer to make? behold how many things they testify against you.
5 But Jesus made no further answer; so that Pilate was amazed.
6 Now at the feast he released to them one prisoner, whomever they requested.
7 And there was one named Barabbas, who was in prison with his fellow rebels, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
8 And the multitude approached and began asking him to do for them as he usually did.
9 Pilate answered them, saying, Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?
10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him out of envy.
11 But the chief priests incited the people to have him release Barabbas to them.
12 And Pilate answered and said again to them, What then shall I do with him whom you call the King of the Jews?
13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
14 Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? And they cried out all the louder, Crucify him.
15 And so Pilate, wanting to satisfy the people, released Barabbas to them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called the Praetorium; and they called together the whole band of soldiers.
17 And they clothed him with purple, and weaved a crown of thorns, and put it on him,
18 And began to acclaim him, Hail, King of the Jews!
19 And they struck him on the head with a cane, and spat upon him, and bowed their knees in worship to him.
20 And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off of him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
21 And they compelled Simon, a Cyrenian who was passing by on his way in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
22 And they brought him to the place called Golgotha, which means, The place of a skull.
23 And they gave him wine to drink mingled with myrrh: but he would not take it.
24 And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots for them, to decide what each man should take.
25 And it was the third hour when they crucified him.
26 And the inscription of the accusation against him was written above him, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 And with him they crucified two thieves; one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
