1 And straightway in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
And as soon as ever it was light the chief priests holding a consultation with the elders and scribes, they and the whole sanhedrim, bound Jesus, and carried Him away, and delivered Him to Pilate.

6 Now at the feast he used to release unto them one prisoner, whom they asked of him.

8 And the multitude went up and began to ask him [to do] as he was wont to do unto them.
And the people clamoured and desired him to do as he always used to do for them.
9 And Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
But Pilate answered them, saying, Would ye have me release to you the king of the Jews?
10 For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
(for he knew that the chief priests had delivered Him up to him out of envy: )
11 But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.
but the chief priests incited the people to desire that he would rather release Barabbas to them.
12 And Pilate again answered and said unto them, What then shall I do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?
And Pilate answered, and said to them again, What then would you have me do with Him, whom ye call king of the Jews?
13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
And they cried out again, Crucify Him.
14 And Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, Crucify him.
But Pilate said unto them, Why, what ill has He done? And they cried out the more vehemently, Crucify Him.
15 And Pilate, wishing to content the multitude, released unto them Barabbas, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

30 save thyself, and come down from the cross.
