13 When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus out. Then he sat down on the judge's bench at the place known as “The Stone Pavement”. In Aramaic this pavement is called “Gabbatha”.
14 It was about midday on the day before Passover, and Pilate said to the crowd, “Look at your king!”
15 “Kill him! Kill him!” they yelled. “Nail him to a cross!”“So you want me to nail your king to a cross?” Pilate asked.The chief priests replied, “The Emperor is our king!”
16 Then Pilate handed Jesus over to be nailed to a cross.Jesus was taken away,
17 and he carried his cross to a place known as “The Skull”. In Aramaic this place is called “Golgotha”.
18 There Jesus was nailed to the cross, and on each side of him a man was also nailed to a cross.
19 Pilate ordered the charge against Jesus to be written on a board and put above the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.”
