John 19:14-16

¹⁴It was around noon on the preparation day before the Passover. “Look, here is your king,” he said to the Jews.

¹⁵“Kill him! Kill him! Crucify him!” they screamed out. “Do you want me to crucify your king?” Pilate asked. “The only king we have is Caesar,” the chief priests replied.

¹⁶So he handed Jesus over to them to be crucified.
