1
And the first thing in the morning the chief priests, with those in authority and the scribes and all the Sanhedrin, had a meeting, and put cords round Jesus, and took him away, and gave him up to Pilate.
2
And Pilate put a question to him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he, answering, said to him, You say so.
3
And the chief priests said a number of things against him.
4
And Pilate again put a question, Do you say nothing in answer? see how much evil they say you have done.
5
But Jesus gave no more answers, so that Pilate was full of wonder.
6
Now at the feast every year he let one prisoner go free at their request.
