All hail the power of Jesus' name,
let angels prostrate fall.
| John 18:31 | Then Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and judge him according to your law.” The (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put any one to death.” |
| John 18:32 | This was to fulfill the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) word that Jesus had spoken indicating what kind of death he was going to die. |
| John 18:33 | Then Pilate entered his (to | τό | acc sg neut) headquarters again, summoned Jesus and said to him, “Are you the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) king of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Jews?” |
| John 18:35 | Pilate answered, “I am not a Jew, am I? Your own people and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?” |
| John 18:36 | Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my subjects would be fighting to prevent me from being handed over to the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) Jews; but as it is my kingdom is not from here.” |
| John 18:37 | Therefore Pilate said to him, “So you are a king, then?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king! The reason for which I was born and have come into the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) world, is that I should bear witness to the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) truth. Everyone who (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) is of the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) truth listens to my voice.” |
| John 18:38 | Pilate said to him, “What is truth?” And having said this he went out again to the (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) Jews and said to them, “I find no basis for an accusation against him. |
| John 18:39 | But you have a custom that I should release someone for you at the (tō | τῷ | dat sg neut) Passover. So do you want me to release for you the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) king of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Jews?” |
| John 18:40 | They shouted back, saying, “Not that man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a revolutionary. |
| John 19:1 | Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged. |
| John 19:2 | And the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) soldiers twisted some thorns into a crown and placed it on his head, and they threw a purple robe around him. |
| John 19:3 | Then they kept coming up to him, saying, “Hail, king of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Jews!” and slapping him in the face. |
| John 19:4 | Once more Pilate went out and said to them, “Look, I am bringing him out to you that you may know that I find no basis for an accusation against him.” |
| John 19:5 | So Jesus came out, wearing the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) crown of thorns and the (to | τό | acc sg neut) purple robe; and Pilate said to them, “Look, the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) man!” |
| John 19:6 | When the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) chief priests and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) officers saw him, they cried out, saying, “Crucify him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him; for I find no basis for an accusation against him.” |
| John 19:7 | The (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to our (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) law he ought to die, because he claimed to be the Son of God.” |
| John 19:8 | Now when Pilate heard this statement, he became even more afraid. |
| John 19:9 | He went back into his (to | τό | acc sg neut) headquarters and said to (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. |
| John 19:10 | So Pilate said to him, “Are you not going to talk to me? You know, do you not, that I have the authority to release you and I have the authority to crucify you?” |
| John 19:11 | Jesus said, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. That is why the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) man who handed me over to you has a greater sin.” |
| John 19:12 | From that point on Pilate tried to release him, but the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews kept shouting out, saying, “If you release this man, you are no ‘Friend of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) Caesar.’ Anyone who (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) claims to be a king opposes Caesar.” |
| John 19:13 | On hearing these words, Pilate brought Jesus out and sat down on the judge’s bench in the place called “Stone Pavement,” or in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.” |
| John 19:14 | Now it was the day of Preparation for the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) Passover, about noon. Pilate said to the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) Jews, “Here is your king!” |
| John 19:15 | But they shouted, “Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your king?” The (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!” |
| John 19:16 | Then Pilate handed him over to the soldiers to be crucified. So they took charge of Jesus, |
