24. And Pilate having seen that it profiteth nothing, but rather a tumult is made, having taken water, he did wash the hands before the multitude, saying, `I am innocent from the blood of this righteous one; ye--ye shall see;'
25. and all the people answering said, `His blood [is] upon us, and upon our children!'
26. Then did he release to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered [him] up that he may be crucified;
27. then the soldiers of the governor having taken Jesus to the Praetorium, did gather to him all the band;
28. and having unclothed him, they put around him a crimson cloak,
29. and having plaited him a crown out of thorns they put [it] on his head, and a reed in his right hand, and having kneeled before him, they were mocking him, saying, `Hail, the king of the Jews.'
30. And having spit on him, they took the reed, and were smiting on his head;
31. and when they had mocked him, they took off from him the cloak, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify [him].
32. And coming forth, they found a man, a Cyrenian, by name Simon: him they impressed that he might bear his cross;
33. and having come to a place called Golgotha, that is called Place of a Skull,
34. they gave him to drink vinegar mixed with gall, and having tasted, he would not drink.
35. And having crucified him, they divided his garments, casting a lot, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken by the prophet, `They divided my garments to themselves, and over my vesture they cast a lot;'
36. and sitting down, they were watching him there,
37. and they put up over his head, his accusation written, `This is Jesus, the king of the Jews.'
38. Then crucified with him are two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on the left,
39. and those passing by were speaking evil of him, wagging their heads,
40. and saying, `Thou that art throwing down the sanctuary, and in three days building [it], save thyself; if Son thou art of God, come down from the cross.'
