John 18:33–40

³³Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, ^aArt thou the King of the Jews? ³⁴Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? ³⁵Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done? ³⁶Jesus answered, ^bMy kingdom is not ^cof this world: if my kingdom were ^cof this world, then would ^dmy servants ^efight, that I should not ^fbe delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. ³⁷Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, ^gThou sayest that I am a king. ^hTo this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should ⁱbear witness unto ^kthe truth. ^lEvery one that is of the truth heareth my voice. ³⁸Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he ^mwent out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, ⁿI find in him no fault at all. ^39oBut ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? ⁴⁰Then cried they all ^pagain, saying, ^qNot this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was ^ra robber.
