Mark 15:11-16 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

11. But the chief priests incited the crowd so that he would release for them Barabbas instead.

12. So Pilate answered and said to them again, “Then what do you want me to do with the one whom you call the king of the Jews?”

13. And they shouted again, “Crucify him!”

14. And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted even louder, “Crucify him!”

15. So Pilate, because he wanted to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas. And after he had Jesus flogged, he handed him over so that he could be crucified.

16. So the soldiers led him away into the palace (that is, the governor’s residence) and called together the whole cohort.
