1. Then therefore, Pilate took Jesus, and scourged him.
2. And the soldiers platting a crown of thorns, put it upon his head; and they put on him a purple garment.
3. And they came to him, and said: Hail, king of the Jews; and they gave him blows.
4. Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him.
5. (Jesus therefore came forth, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he saith to them: Behold the Man.
6. When the chief priests, therefore, and the servants, had seen him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Take him you, and crucify him: for I find no cause in him.
7. The Jews answered him: We have a law; and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8. When Pilate therefore had heard this saying, he feared the more.
