29. Therefore Pilate went out to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this Man?"
30. They answered and said to him, "If this Man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him to you."
31. So Pilate said to them, "Take Him yourselves, and judge Him according to your law." The Jews said to him, "We are not permitted to put anyone to death,"
32. to fulfill the word of Jesus which He spoke, signifying by what kind of death He was about to die.
33. Therefore Pilate entered again into the Praetorium, and summoned Jesus and said to Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?"
34. Jesus answered, "Are you saying this on your own initiative, or did others tell you about Me?"
35. Pilate answered, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered You to me; what have You done?"
