Weekly Scripture

Taken from the New International Version

John 19: 1- 12



1: Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged. 

2: The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They clothed 
    him in a purple robe 

3: and went up to him again and again, saying, "Hail, king of the Jews!" And they struck
    him in the face. 

4: Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews, "Look, I am bringing him out to you 
    to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him." 

5: When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to 
    them, "Here is the man!" 

6: As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, "Crucify! 
    Crucify!" But Pilate answered, "You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no 
    basis for a charge against him." 

7: The Jews insisted, "We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because 
    he claimed to be the Son of God." 

8: When Pilate heard this, he was even more afraid, 

9: and he went back inside the palace. "Where do you come from?" he asked Jesus, 
    but Jesus gave him no answer. 

10: "Do you refuse to speak to me?" Pilate said. "Don't you realize I have power either 
       to free you or to crucify you?" 

11: Jesus answered, "You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from 
     above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin." 

12: From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free, but the Jews kept shouting, "If you let
     this man go, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king opposes 
     Caesar."
