Matthew 27:15-18

Thomson(i) 15 Now at a festival it was customary for the governor to release to the people any one prisoner whom they desired. 16 And they had then a noted prisoner named Barabbas. 17 So when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, Whom do you desire me to release to you? Barabbas; or Jesus who is called Christ? 18 For he knew that out of envy they had delivered him up.
