众人聚集的时候,彼拉多就对他们说,你们要我释放那一个给你们。是巴拉巴呢。是称为基督的耶稣呢。Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
正坐堂的时候,他的夫人打发人来说,这义人的事,你一点不可管。因为我今天在梦中,为他受了许多的苦。When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
彼拉多说,这样,那称为基督的耶稣,我怎吗办他呢。他们说,把他钉十字架。Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
彼拉多见说也无济于事,反要生乱,就拿水在众人面前洗手,说,流这义人的血,罪不在我,你们承当吧。When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
