Jesus Flogged and Rejected as King

19 Pilate then took Jesus and [a](A)flogged Him. (B)And when the soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and put a purple [b]robe on Him; and they were coming to Him and saying, “(C)Hail, King of the Jews!” and were (D)giving Him slaps in the face. And Pilate (E)came out again and *said to them, “Behold, I am bringing Him out to you so that you may know that (F)I find no guilt in Him.” Jesus then came out, (G)wearing the crown of thorns and the purple [c]robe. Pilate *said to them, “Behold, the man!” So when the chief priests and the (H)officers saw Him, they cried out saying, “Crucify, crucify!” Pilate *said to them, “Take Him yourselves and crucify Him, for (I)I find no guilt in Him.” The Jews answered him, “(J)We have a law, and by that law He ought to die because He (K)made Himself out to be the Son of God.”
