12 From this Pilate sought to loose him: and the Jews cried out, saying, If thou loose this, thou art not Caesar's friend: every one making himself a king speaks against Caesar. 13 Then Pilate having heard, brought Jesus without, and sat upon the judgment seat, in a place called Paved with ornamental stones; in Hebraic, Gabbatha. 14 And it was the preparation of the pascha, and about the sixth hour: and he says to the Jews, Behold your King! 15 And they cried, Take away, take away, crucify him. Pilate says to them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar. 16 Then, therefore, delivered he him to them, that he might be crucified.
