⁴Pilate tell de leada dem ob de priest dem an de heapa people wa done geda dey say, “A ain see nottin bad wa dis man done.”

⁵Bot de people dem ob de Council keep on da cuse um mo an mo. Dey tell Pilate say, “Jedus beena stir op de people wid de ting wa e da laan um all oba Judea. E staat een Galilee, an now e done come all de way yah ta Jerusalem.”

⁷Soon as Pilate find out dat Jedus been fom Galilee, de arie weh Herod da rule, e sen Jedus ta Herod fa jedge um. An dat same time Herod been dey een Jerusalem too.

⁸Herod been too glad wen e see Jedus, cause e done yeh bout um an been wahn fa shim fa a long time. E been wahn fa shim do some miracle.

⁹Herod quizzit Jedus tommuch, bot Jedus neba ansa um eben a wod.

²²Pilate tell de people gin. Dat mek shree time. E aks um say, “Wa fa? A ain see nottin dat e done fa mek me hab dem kill um! Cause ob dat, A gwine hab dem whip um an den leh um go.”

²³Bot de people beena holla mo an mo, say Pilate oughta hab e sodja dem kill Jedus pon de cross. An cause de people holla sommuch an cause ob de leada dem ob de priest dem, e change e mind.

²⁴So Pilate done wa de people been wahn um fa do.

²⁵E free Barabbas, de man dey aks fa, wa been een de jailhouse fa de riot an fa kill somebody. Den Pilate tell e sodja dem fa tek Jedus an do wa de people been wahn um fa do.

²⁷A whole heapa people beena folla Jedus. Some dem ooman wa beena folla um beena weep an wail fa um.

²⁸Jedus ton roun ta dem an say, “Oona daughta ob Jerusalem, mus dohn cry fa me! Mus cry fa oonasef an fa oona chullun.

²⁹Cause de time gwine come wen people gwine say, ‘Bless fa true dem ooman wa ain neba hab no chullun, dem wa ain neba bon no baby an wa ain neba nuss none!’

⁴¹Dey condemn we fa wa we done, an we da git we pay fa all de bad ting dem we done. Bot dis man yah ain done nottin bad.”

⁴²Den e beg Jedus say, “Jedus, please do, memba me wen ya come fa be King!”
