Matthew 27:24-26
International Children’s Bible
24 Pilate saw that he could do nothing about this, and a riot was starting. So he took some water and washed his hands[a] in front of the crowd. Then he said, “I am not guilty of this man’s death. You are the ones who are causing it!”
25 All the people answered, “We will be responsible. We accept for ourselves and for our children any punishment for his death.”
26 Then Pilate freed Barabbas. Pilate told some of the soldiers to beat Jesus with whips. Then he gave Jesus to the soldiers to be killed on a cross.
