12 And at His being accused by the chief priests and the elders, He answers nothing."
13 Then Pilate is saying to Him, "Are you not hearing how much they are testifying against you?
14 And He did not answer him; not even with one declaration, so that the governor is marveling very much."
15 Now at the festival the governor had been accustomed to release one prisoner to the throng, whomever they wanted."
16 Now they had then a notorious prisoner termed Bar-Abbas.
17 At their having gathered, then, Pilate said to them, "Whom are you wanting I should be releasing to you, Bar-Abbas, or Jesus, who is termed Christ?
18 For he was aware that it was because of envy they give Him up.
19 Now at his sitting on the dais, his wife dispatches to him, saying, "Let there be nothing between you and that just man, for I suffered much today in a trance because of him."
20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuade the throngs that they should be requesting Bar-Abbas, yet should be destroying Jesus."
21 Now, answering, the governor said to them, "Which of the two are you wanting I should be releasing to you?Now they said "Bar-Abbas!"
22 Pilate is saying to them, "What, then, shall I be doing with Jesus, who is termed Christ?They are all saying, "Let him be crucified!"
23 Yet the governor averred, "What evil does he?Yet they cried exceedingly, saying, "Let him be crucified!"
24 Now Pilate, perceiving that it is benefiting nothing, but rather a tumult is occurring, getting water, washes off his hands in front of the throng, saying, "Innocent am I of the blood of this just man. You will be seeing to it!"
25 And, answering, the entire people said, "His blood be on us and on our children!"
26 Then he releases to them Bar-Abbas. Now, whipping Jesus, he gives Him over that He may be crucified."
