John 19:1-6

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

19 Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged.^{(A) 2} And the soldiers wove a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and they dressed him in a purple robe.^{(B) 3} They kept coming up to him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and striking him on the face.^{(C) 4} Pilate went out again and said to them, “Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no case against him.”^{(D) 5} So Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate^[a] said to them, “Behold the man!”^{(E) 6} When the chief priests and the police saw him, they shouted, “Crucify him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him; I find no case against him.”^(F)
