    13 So Pilate, when he heard this statement, brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called The Stone Pavement, which in Aramaic is called Gabbatha.

    14 It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Here is your king!"

    15 But they shouted, "Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your king?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."

    16 So then he handed him over to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.

    17 Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place called The Place of the Skull, which in Aramaic is called Golgotha.

    18 There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.

    19 Pilate also had a sign written and put on the cross; it read, "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."

    20 Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, Latin, and Greek.

    21 The chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but that this man said, 'I am the King of the Jews.'"
