Matthew 27:23 in Context — Matthew 27
21 Le gouverneur prenant la parole, leur dit: Lequel des deux voulez-vous que je vous relâche? Ils répondirent: Barabbas.
22 Pilate leur dit: Que ferai-je donc de Jésus, qu’on appelle Christ? Tous répondirent: Qu’il soit crucifié!
23 Le gouverneur dit: Mais quel mal a-t-il fait? Et ils crièrent encore plus fort: Qu’il soit crucifié!
24 Pilate, voyant qu’il ne gagnait rien, mais que le tumulte augmentait, prit de l’eau, se lava les mains en présence de la foule, et dit: Je suis innocent du sang de ce juste. Cela vous regarde.
25 Et tout le peuple répondit: Que son sang retombe sur nous et sur nos enfants!
