"And when the crowd had ascended, they began to petition him to do as he always did for them. "
— Mark 15:8, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.”
“And the multitude went up and began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them. ”
“The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he always did for them.”
“Then the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to release a prisoner for them, as was his custom.”
“And when the multitude was come up, they began to desire that he would do as he had ever done unto them.”
“And the people went up, requesting him to do as he had done for them in other years.”
“And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.”
But Jesus continued to give no response, so that Pilate wondered.
Now on the feast day, he was accustomed to release to them one of the prisoners, whomever they requested.
But there was one called Barabbas, who had committed murder in the sedition, who was confined with those of the sedition.
And when the crowd had ascended, they began to petition him to do as he always did for them.
But Pilate answered them and said, “Do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?”
For he knew that it was out of envy that the leaders of the priests had betrayed him.
Then the chief priests incited the crowd, so that he would release Barabbas to them instead.
