John 18:35

John 18:28-38

²⁸So they lead Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium. It was early. And they themselves did not enter into the praetorium, so that they would not be defiled but could eat the Passover. ²⁹So Pilate went outside to them and says, “What accusation do you bring against this man?” ³⁰They answered and said to him, “If this man were not doing evil, we would not have handed him over to you.” ³¹So Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and judge him according to your law.” The Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death.” ³²This was so that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled that he had spoken, showing by what kind of death he was going to die. ³³So Pilate entered the praetorium again and called Jesus and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” ³⁴Jesus answered, “Do you say this of your own accord, or did others tell you about me?” ³⁵Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the high priests handed you over to me. What have you done?” ³⁶Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my officers would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.” ³⁷So Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” ³⁸Pilate says to him, “What is truth?” And having said this, he went out again to the Jews and says to them, “I find no ground for a charge in him.

¹And the whole multitude of them rose up and brought him before Pilate. ²And they began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting our nation and forbidding people to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Messiah, a king.” ³And Pilate asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him and said, “You say so.” ⁴And Pilate said to the high priests and the crowds, “I find no guilt in this man.” ⁵But they kept insisting, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, and beginning from Galilee as far as here.”
