John 18:36-40

36JesusG2424 answeredG611, “1My kingdomG932 2is 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 3of thisG1782 realmG1782.” 37ThereforeG3767 PilateG4091 saidG3004 to Him, “SoG3766 You are a kingG935?” JesusG2424 answeredG611, “4You sayG3004 correctly that I amG1510 a kingG935. For thisG3778 I have been bornG1080, and for thisG3778 I have comeG2064 into the worldG2889, 5to testifyG3140 to the truthG225. 6EveryoneG3956 who is of the truthG225 hearsG191 My voiceG5456.” 38PilateG4091 saidG3004 to Him, “WhatG5101 is truthG225?”

And when he had saidG3004 thisG3778, he 7wentG1831 out againG3825 to the JewsG2453 and saidG3004 to them, “8I findG2147 noG3762 guiltG156 in Him. 399But you have a customG4914 that I releaseG630 someoneG1520 10for you at the PassoverG3957; do you wishG1014 thenG3767 that I releaseG630 11for you the KingG935 of the JewsG2453?” 40SoG3767 they criedG2905 out againG3825, sayingG3004, “12Not thisG3778 ManG3778, but BarabbasG912.” NowG1161 BarabbasG912 was a robberG3027.
