But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead.
But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,
Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.
They cried out again, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
Hear this, O priests! Pay attention, O house of Israel! Give ear, O house of the king! For the judgment is for you; for you have been a snare at Mizpah and a net spread upon Tabor.
