But Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the portress and brought in Peter.

The maid therefore that was portress saith to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man’s disciple? He saith I am not.

The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples and of his doctrine.

And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it and said: I am not.

Again therefore Peter denied: and immediately the cock crew.

Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation bring you against this man?

Pilate therefore said to them: Take him you, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any man to death.

Pilate therefore went into the hall again and called Jesus and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

But you have a custom that I should release one unto you at the Pasch. Will you, therefore, that I release unto you the king of the Jews?

Then therefore Pilate took Jesus and scourged him.

Pilate therefore went forth again and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him.

(Jesus therefore came forth, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he saith to them: Behold the Man.

When the chief priests, therefore, and the servants had seen him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, Crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Take him you, and crucify him: for I find no cause in him.

When Pilate therefore had heard this saying, he feared the more.

Pilate therefore saith to him: Speakest thou not to me? Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and I have power to release thee?

Jesus answered: Thou shouldst not have any power against me, unless it were given thee from above. Therefore, he that hath delivered me to thee hath the greater sin.

Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus and led him forth.

This title therefore many of the Jews did read: because the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city. And it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin.

The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified him, took his garments, (and they made four parts, to every soldier a part) and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
