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!
26 Alors Pilate leur relâcha Barabbas; et, après avoir fait battre de verges Jésus, il le livra pour être crucifié.
