John 19:12-16
1599 Geneva Bible
12 From thenceforth Pilate sought to loose him, but the Jews cried, saying, If thou deliver him, thou art not Caesar’s friend: for whosoever maketh himself a King, speaketh against Caesar.
13 ¶ [a]When Pilate heard this word, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place called the pavement, and in Hebrew, [b]Gabbatha.
14 And it was the Preparation of the Passover, and about the sixth hour: and he said unto the Jews, Behold your King.
15 But they cried, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate said unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The high Priests answered, We have no King but Caesar.
16 [c]Then delivered he him unto them, to be crucified. (A)And they took Jesus, and led him away.
