OET (OET-LV) Therefore the Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) came_out outside, wearing the thorny crown and the purple robe.
And he_is_saying to_them:
Behold, the man.

OET (OET-RV) So they led Yeshua out wearing the thorny crown and the kingly robe, and Pilate said, “Look. Here’s the man.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 18:28–19:16a: Pilate investigated Jesus and decided that he should die

This section tells how the soldiers took Jesus to the Roman governor, Pilate. Pilate questioned Jesus to find out why the Jews wanted him to punish Jesus with death. He could find no reason to do that. But the Jewish leaders there insisted that Pilate crucify him. Finally, Pilate agreed that Jesus could be crucified.

Here are other possible section headings:

Pilate questioned the Jews and Jesus and sent Jesus to be crucified

Pilate investigated Jesus and decided that he could be punished with death

Jesus’ trial and judgment before Pilate

This section can be divided into seven smaller pieces, where each piece is a separate event. Jews often arranged written materials to include seven related pieces, where the first and last pieces relate, and the second and sixth relate, and the third and fifth relate. Then the middle piece, the fourth, stands alone and is emphasized. That happens in this section as well. Here is a chart showing the seven pieces of this section and how they relate:

18:28–32: Outside the house; Jews ask for Jesus’ death

18:33–38a: Inside the house; Pilate asks Jesus if he is King of the Jews

18:38b–40: Outside the house; Pilate says, “I find no case against him.”

19:1–3: The soldiers beat Jesus with a whip and pretend that he is the king of the Jews

19:4–8: Outside the house; Pilate says, “I find no case against him.”

19:8–11: Inside the house; Pilate asks Jesus where he came from

19:12–16a: Outside the house; Pilate allows Jews to crucify Jesus

The middle piece, 19:1–3, is different from all the other pieces. Pilate is only mentioned and is not an important person in this event. That is different from all the other pieces. This middle piece therefore is emphasized. The only ones who seem to worship Jesus in the whole section do so in this middle piece. However, they only pretend to worship and are very cruel as they mock Jesus.

In your translation, you may want to find ways to emphasize 19:1–3. Also, try to translate this section in ways that make it possible to see the connections between the pieces.

Paragraph 19:4–7

Pilate told the Jewish religious leaders that he thought that Jesus was innocent and planned to free him. But they protested and shouted to Pilate to crucify Jesus.

19:5a

When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe,

The Greek begins this verse with a conjunction that the BSB leaves implicit but some versions translate as “So.” It indicates that this action follows the action of the last verse. For example:

Then (NLT)

Jesus came out: The phrase came out refers to Jesus coming out of Pilate’s house to the courtyard where the Jews were gathered. In some languages it may be natural to make this explicit. If this is the case in your languages you may supply the expression you used in 18:28. For example:

Jesus came/went out of Pilate’s house

wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe: Jesus still had on the crown of thorns and the purple robe. The soldiers had put these on Jesus to mock him. See how you translated crown of thorns and the purple robe in 19:2. In some languages it may be natural to translate this as a separate sentence. For example:

He was wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. (GW)

19:5b

Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”

Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”: Pilate showed Jesus to the Jews, hoping that they would realize that he was not dangerous. His words may have expressed either pity or scorn for Jesus. In either case, he was implying that it was not necessary to crucify him.

them: This pronoun refers to the Jews that were gathered there to accuse Jesus.

Here is the man!: The Greek word that the BSB translates as Here is calls attention to something, similar to “Look” in 19:4b. Here Pilate asked the Jews to look at Jesus. Because Pilate thought that Jesus was innocent, he probably wanted them to see that he was not dangerous. Here are other ways to translate this clause:

Look! Here is the man! (GNT)

Look at this man. (Yakan Back Translation)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐξῆλθεν

came_out

Your language may state “came” rather than went in contexts such as this. Use whichever is more natural in your language.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὸν ἀκάνθινον στέφανον καὶ τὸ πορφυροῦν ἱμάτιον

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐξῆλθεν Οὖν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἔξω φορῶν τόν ἀκάνθινον στέφανον καί τό πορφυροῦν ἱμάτιον Καί λέγει αὐτοῖς Ἰδού ὁ ἄνθρωπος)

See how you translated crown, thorns, and purple garment in [19:2](../19/02.md).

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

λέγει

˱he˲_˓is˒_saying

Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
