John 18:29-38

291ThereforeG3767 PilateG4091 wentG1831 out to them and saidG5346, “WhatG5101 accusationG2724 do you bringG5342 against thisG3778 ManG444?” 30They answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, “IfG1487 thisG3778 ManG3778 were not an evildoerG2556, we would not have deliveredG3860 Him to you.” 31SoG3767 PilateG4091 saidG3004 to them, “TakeG2983 Him yourselvesG4771, and judgeG2919 Him accordingG2596 to your lawG3551.” The JewsG2453 saidG3004 to him, “We are not permittedG1832 to putG615 anyoneG3762 to deathG615,” 32to fulfillG4137 2the wordG3056 of JesusG2424 whichG3739 He spokeG3004, signifyingG4591 by whatG4169 kindG4169 of deathG2288 He was aboutG3195 to dieG599.

33ThereforeG3767 PilateG4091 3enteredG1525 againG3825 into the PraetoriumG4232, and summonedG5455 JesusG2424 and saidG3004 to Him, “4Are You the KingG935 of the JewsG2453?” 34JesusG2424 answeredG611, “Are you sayingG3004 thisG3778 5on your ownG1438 initiativeG1438, orG2228 did othersG243 tellG3004 you aboutG4012 Me?” 35PilateG4091 answeredG611, “I amG1510 not a JewG2453, am I? Your own nationG1484 and the chiefG749 priestsG749 deliveredG3860 You to me; whatG5101 have You doneG4160?” 36JesusG2424 answeredG611, “6My kingdomG932 7is not of thisG3778 worldG2889. IfG1487 My kingdomG932 were of thisG3778 worldG2889, then My servantsG5257 would be fightingG75 soG2443 that I would not be handedG3860 over to the JewsG2453; but as it is, My kingdomG932 is not 8of thisG1782 realmG1782.” 37ThereforeG3767 PilateG4091 saidG3004 to Him, “SoG3766 You are a kingG935?” JesusG2424 answeredG611, “9You sayG3004 correctly that I amG1510 a kingG935. For thisG3778 I have been bornG1080, and for thisG3778 I have comeG2064 into the worldG2889, 10to testifyG3140 to the truthG225. 11EveryoneG3956 who is of the truthG225 hearsG191 My voiceG5456.” 38PilateG4091 saidG3004 to Him, “WhatG5101 is truthG225?”

And when he had saidG3004 thisG3778, he 12wentG1831 out againG3825 to the JewsG2453 and saidG3004 to them, “13I findG2147 noG3762 guiltG156 in Him.
