Matthew 27:18-20

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁸ For he realized that it was out of jealousy that they had handed him over. ¹⁹ While he was sitting on the judgement seat, his wife sent word to him, ‘Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for today I have suffered a great deal because of a dream about him.’ ²⁰ Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus killed.
