NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 As soon as morning came, the chief priests with the elders and the scribes, that is, the whole Sanhedrin, held a council. They bound Jesus, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate.	1 And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council, binding Jesus, led him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
2 Pilate questioned him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" He said to him in reply, "You say so."	2 And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he answering, saith to him: Thou sayest it.
3 The chief priests accused him of many things.	3 And the chief priests accused him in many things.

9 Pilate answered, "Do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?"	9 And Pilate answered them, and said: Will you that I release to you the king of the Jews?
10 For he knew that it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed him over.	10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up out of envy.
11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release Barabbas for them instead.	11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas to them.
12 Pilate again said to them in reply, "Then what (do you want) me to do with (the man you call) the king of the Jews?"	12 And Pilate again answering, saith to them: What will you then that I do to the king of the Jews?
13 They shouted again, "Crucify him."	13 But they again cried out: Crucify him.
14 Pilate said to them, "Why? What evil has he done?" They only shouted the louder, "Crucify him."	14 And Pilate saith to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more: Crucify him.
15 So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas to them and, after he had Jesus scourged, handed him over to be crucified.	15 And so Pilate being willing to satisfy the people, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
