24 Pilate perceiving he was so far from prevailing, that they were more tumultuous, he took water, and washed his hands before all the people, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: you are answerable for it. 25 at this all the people cry'd out, "his blood be on us, and on our children." 26 Then he released to them Barabbas: but he order'd Jesus to be scourged, and delivered up to be crucified.
