11. Then the chief priests incited the crowd, so that he would release Barabbas to them instead.
12. But Pilate, responding again, said to them: "Then what do you want me to do with the king of the Jews?"
13. But again they cried out, "Crucify him."
14. Yet truly, Pilate said to them: "Why? What evil has he done?" But they cried out all the more, "Crucify him."
15. Then Pilate, wishing to satisfy the people, released Barabbas to them, and he delivered Jesus, having severely scourged him, to be crucified.
16. Then the soldiers led him away to the court of the praetorium. And they called together the entire cohort.
17. And they clothed him with purple. And platting a crown of thorns, they placed it on him.
18. And they began to salute him: "Hail, king of the Jews."
19. And they struck his head with a reed, and they spit on him. And kneeling down, they reverenced him.
20. And after they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple, and they clothed him in his own garments. And they led him away, so that they might crucify him.
