19 Pilate, when Christ was scourged, 2 and crowned with thorns, 4 was desirous to let him loose: 8 but being overcome with the outrage of the Jews, 16 he delivereth him to be crucified. 26 Jesus committeth his mother to the disciple. 30 Having tasted vinegar, he dieth: 34 and being dead, his side is pierced with a spear. 40 He is buried.

Then (A)Pilate took Jesus and [a]scourged him.

And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple garment,

And said, Hail King of the Jews. And they smote him with their rods.

[b]Then Pilate went forth again, and said unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know, that I find no fault in him at all.

Then came Jesus forth wearing a crown of thorns, and a purple garment. And Pilate said unto them, Behold the man.

Then when the high Priests and officers saw him, they cried, saying, [c]Crucify, crucify him. Pilate said unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
