Matthew 27:18-20

Darby Translation

¹⁸ For he knew that they had delivered him up through envy.

¹⁹ But, as he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous [man]; for I have suffered to-day many things in a dream because of him.

²⁰ But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds that they should beg for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
