New Testament

Luke 23:3-10 New Century Version (NCV)

3. Pilate asked Jesus, “Are you the king of the Jews?”Jesus answered, “Those are your words.”

4. Pilate said to the leading priests and the people, “I find nothing against this man.”

5. They were insisting, saying, “But Jesus makes trouble with the people, teaching all around Judea. He began in Galilee, and now he is here.”

6. Pilate heard this and asked if Jesus was from Galilee.

7. Since Jesus was under Herod’s authority, Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who was in Jerusalem at that time.

8. When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, because he had heard about Jesus and had wanted to meet him for a long time. He was hoping to see Jesus work a miracle.

9. Herod asked Jesus many questions, but Jesus said nothing.

10. The leading priests and teachers of the law were standing there, strongly accusing Jesus.
