EasyEnglish Bible
13 The people shouted back to Pilate: ‘Kill him on a cross!’
14 ‘Why should I kill him?’ Pilate asked. ‘What bad things has he done?’
But the people shouted even louder, ‘Kill him on a cross!’
15 Pilate decided to do what the crowd wanted.[a] So he let Barabbas go free. He said to his soldiers, ‘Hit Jesus many times with a whip.[b] Then take him and fix him on a cross to die.’
