Mark 15:15-20 ▼

15 And Pilate, resolving to do that which [was] satisfactory to the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and delivered up Jesus—having scourged [Him]—that He might be crucified.

16 And the soldiers led Him away into the hall, which is [the] Praetorium, and call together the whole band,

17 and clothe Him with purple, and having plaited a garland of thorns, they put [it] on Him,

18 and began to greet Him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

19 And they were striking Him on the head with a reed, and were spitting on Him, and having bent the knee, were prostrating to Him,

20 and when they [had] mocked Him, they took the purple from off Him, and clothed Him in His own garments, and they led Him forth, that they may crucify Him.
