Jesus Before Pilate

^11 (A)Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, “Are you ^(B)the King of the Jews?” Jesus said, ^(C)“You have said so.” ^12 (D)But when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he gave no answer. ¹³ Then Pilate said to him, ^(E)“Do you not hear how many things they testify against you?” ¹⁴ But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge, so that the governor was greatly amazed.

^2 (A)And Pilate asked him, ^(B)“Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, ^(C)“You have said so.” ³ And the chief priests accused him of many things. ⁴ And Pilate again asked him, ^(D)“Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.” ⁵ But Jesus ^(E)made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.

² And they began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man ^(A)misleading our nation and ^(B)forbidding us to give tribute to ^(C)Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, ^(D)a king.” ^3 (E)And Pilate asked him, ^(F)“Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, ^(G)“You have said so.”
