6
When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
7
And as soon as he knew that he belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself was also at Jerusalem at that time.
8
And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he had been for a long time, desirous to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some miracle done by him.
9
Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
10
And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
11
And Herod with his troops set him at naught, and mocked [him], and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
12
And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together; for before they were at enmity between themselves.
13
And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, and the rulers, and the people,
14
Said to them, Ye have brought this man to me, as one that perverteth the people: and behold, I, having examined [him] before you, have found no fault in this man, touching those things of which ye accuse him
15
No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and lo, nothing worthy of death is done to him:
16
I will therefore chastise him, and release [him].
