22. Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do about Jesus, who is called Christ?" They all said, "Let him be crucified."
23. The procurator said to them, "But what evil has he done?" But they cried out all the more, saying, "Let him be crucified."
24. Then Pilate, seeing that he was able to accomplish nothing, but that a greater tumult was occurring, taking water, washed his hands in the sight of the people, saying: "I am innocent of the blood of this just man. See to it yourselves."
25. And the entire people responded by saying, "May his blood be upon us and upon our children."
26. Then he released Barabbas to them. But Jesus, having been scourged, he handed over to them, so that he would be crucified.
27. Then the soldiers of the procurator, taking Jesus up to the praetorium, gathered the entire cohort around him.
28. And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak around him.
29. And plaiting a crown of thorns, they placed it on his head, with a reed in his right hand. And genuflecting before him, they mocked him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews."
30. And spitting on him, they took the reed and struck his head.
31. And after they had mocked him, they stripped him of the cloak, and clothed him with his own garments, and they led him away to crucify him.
32. But as they were going out, they came upon a man of Cyrene, named Simon, whom they compelled to take up his cross.
33. And they arrived at the place which is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.
34. And they gave him wine to drink, mixed with gall. And when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it.
