18:21 Why askest thou me1? Ask them that have heard [me], what I spake unto them2: behold, these know the things which I said3.
18:23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil1: but if well, why smitest thou me2?
18:24 Annas therefore sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest1.
18:28 They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium1: and it was early; and they themselves entered not into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover2.
18:30 They answered and said unto him, If this man were not an evildoer, we should not have delivered him up unto thee1.
18:31 Pilate therefore said unto them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law1. The Jews said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death2:
18:32 that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake1, signifying by what manner of death he should die.
18:33 Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, and called Jesus1, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews2?
18:34 Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me1?
18:35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew1? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee unto me2: what hast thou done3?
18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world1: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king1. To this end have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth2. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
18:38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth1? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find no crime in him2.
18:39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover1: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
