Matthew 27:23-25

Worldwide English (New Testament)

²³ The ruler said, `What wrong thing has he done?' But they shouted even more, `Nail him to a cross!'

²⁴ Pilate saw that he was not doing any good. And the people were making a lot of loud noise. So he washed his hands in water in front of the people. Then he said, `I will not say this man must be killed. You must do that.'

²⁵ Then all the people answered, `We and our children will do that.'
