Matthew 27:24-26

American Standard Version

²⁴ So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent ^[a]of the blood of this righteous man; see ye to it. ²⁵ And all the people answered and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. ²⁶ Then released he unto them Barabbas; but Jesus he scourged and delivered to be crucified.
