28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium: and it was early: and they themselves went not into the praetorium, that they should not be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.
29 Pilate then came out to them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?
30 They answered and said to him, If this fellow had not been a malefactor, we should not have delivered him up to thee.
31 Pilate then said to them, Take him yourselves, and according to your own law judge him. The Jews then said to him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
32 that the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, intimating by what manner of death he should die.
33 Pilate therefore entered again into the praetorium, and called Jesus, and said to him, Art thou the king of the Jews?
34 Jesus answered him, Dost thou speak this from thyself, or did others speak to thee concerning me?
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee to me: what hast thou done?
36 Jesus replied, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom had been of this world, then would my servants have struggled hard, that I should not have been delivered up to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.
37 Then said Pilate unto him. Art thou not a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. For this end I was born, and for this I came into the world, that I should be a witness for the truth. Every one who is of the truth heareth my voice.
38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And having thus spoken, he went out again unto the Jews and saith to them, I find no fault in him.
