8. And the multitude went up and began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them.
9. And Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
10. For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
11. But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.
