20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds that they should ask for Barabbas, and should destroy Jesus.

21 And answering, the governor said to them, “Which of the two do you? desire that I shall release to you??” And they said, “Barabbas.”

22 Pilate says to them, “What then should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” They all say, “Let Him be crucified!”

23 And he said, “For what evil did He commit?” And they kept crying out all the more, saying, “Let Him be crucified!”
