Again they hear the voice of Pilate, saying, "I find in him no fault at all." They see the shameful scene in the judgment hall, when Barabbas stood by the side of Christ, and they had the privilege of choosing the guiltless One. They hear again the words of Pilate, "Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus, which is called Christ?" They hear the response, "Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas." To the question of Pilate, "What shall I do then with Jesus?" the answer comes, "Let him be crucified."

Atter hører de Pilatus stemme sige: "Jeg finder ingen skyld hos ham." De ser den skammelige scene i landshøvdingens borg, hvor Barabbas stod ved siden af Kristus og de havde mulighed for at kunne vælge den uskyldige. De hører igen Pilatus ord: "Hvem vil I, at jeg skal løslade jer: Barabbas eller Jesus, der kaldes Kristus?" De hører svaret: "Bort med ham, men lad os få Barabbas løsladt!" På Pilatus spørgsmål: "Hvad skal jeg da gøre med Jesus?" kommer svaret: "Lad ham blive korsfæstet!"
