John 19:1-7
Wycliffe Bible
19 Therefore Pilate took then Jesus, and scourged him. [Therefore then Pilate took Jesus, and scourged.]
2 And knights wreathed a crown of thorns, and set [put] on his head, and did about him a cloak of purple [a cloth of purple], and came to him,
3 and said, Hail, king of Jews. And they gave to him buffets.
4 Again Pilate went out, and said to them, Lo! I bring him out to you [Lo! I lead him to you withoutforth], that ye know, that I find no cause in him.
5 And so Jesus went out, bearing a crown of thorns, and a cloak of purple [and a cloth of purple]. And he saith to them, Lo! the man.
6 But when the bishops and ministers had seen him, they cried, and said [saying], Crucify, crucify him. Pilate saith to them, Take ye him, and crucify ye [him], for I find no cause in him.
7 The Jews answered to him, We have a law, and by the law he oweth to die, for he made him(self) God's Son [for he made him God's Son].

John 19:1-7
New Matthew Bible
Christ is crucified. He commits his mother to John’s care, sheds his blood, and is buried.
19 Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him. 2 And the soldiers wound a crown of thorns and put it on his head. And they put on him a purple garment, 3 and said, Hail, King of the Jews! And they struck him on the face.
4 Pilate went forth again and said to the people, Look, I am bringing him out to you so that you may know that I find no fault in him. 5 Then Jesus came forth wearing the crown of thorns and the robe of purple. And Pilate said to them, Behold the man!
6 When the high priests and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him! Pilate said to them, You take him and crucify him, for I find no fault in him. 7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

John 19:1-7
1599 Geneva Bible
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.
1 Then (A)Pilate took Jesus and [a]scourged him.
2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple garment,
3 And said, Hail King of the Jews. And they smote him with their rods.
4 [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.
5 Then came Jesus forth wearing a crown of thorns, and a purple garment. And Pilate said unto them, Behold the man.
6 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.
7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
