John 19:6–7

PILATE SENTENCES JESUS TO DEATH

6 When the chief priests and the temple servantsD saw him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!”

Pilate responded, “Take him and crucify him yourselves, since I find no grounds for charging him.”

7 “We have a law,” the Jews replied to him, “and according to that law he ought to die,aa because he made himself the Son of God.”ab
