Pilate finds no fault in Jesus. The Jews demand his crucifixion.
THEN Pilate left Jesus in the hall, and went out to the Jews, and said, I find not any one fault in Jesus.
The Jews say unto him, But he said, I can destroy the temple of God, and in three days build it up again.
Pilate saith unto them, What sort of temple is that of which he speaketh?
The Jews say unto him, That which Solomon was forty-six years in building, he said he would destroy, and in three days build up.
Pilate said to them again, I am innocent from the blood of that man; do ye look to it.
The Jews say to him, His blood be upon us and our children. Then Pilate calling together the elders and scribes, priests and Levites, saith to them privately, Do not act thus; I have found nothing in your charge (against him) concerning his curing sick persons, and breaking the sabbath, worthy of death.
The Priests and Levites replied to Pilate, By the life of Cæsar, if any one be a blasphemer, he is worthy of death; but this man hath blasphemed against the Lord.
Then the governor again commanded the Jews to depart out of the hall; and calling Jesus, said to him, What shall I do with thee?
Jesus answered him, Do according as it is written.
Pilate said to him, How is it written?
Jesus saith to him, Moses and the prophets have prophesied concerning my suffering and resurrection.
The Jews hearing this, were provoked, and said to Pilate, Why wilt thou any longer hear the blasphemy of that man?
Pilate saith to them, If these words seem to you blasphemy, do ye take him, bring him to your court, and try him according to your law.
The Jews reply to Pilate, Our law saith, he shall be obliged to receive nine and thirty stripes, but if after this manner he shall blaspheme against the Lord, he shall be stoned.
Pilate saith unto them, If that speech of his was blasphemy, do ye try him according to your law.
The Jews say to Pilate, Our law commands us not to put any one to death: we desire that he may be crucified, because he deserves the death of the cross.
Pilate saith to them, It is not fit he should be crucified: let him be only whipped and sent away.
But when the governor looked upon the people that were present and the Jews, he saw many of the Jews in tears, and said to the chief priests of the Jews, All the people do not desire his death.
The elders of the Jews answered to Pilate, We and all the people came hither for this very purpose, that he should die.
Pilate saith to them, Why should he die?
They said to him, Because he declares himself to be the Son of God, and a King.

Thy own nation hath charged thee as making thyself a king; wherefore I, Pilate, sentence thee to be whipped according to the laws of former governors; and that thou be first bound, then hanged upon a cross in that place where thou art now a prisoner; and also two criminals with thee, whose names are Dimas and Gestas.
