John 18:37-39

Darby Translation

³⁷ Pilate therefore said to him, Thou art then a king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest [it], that I am a king. I have been born for this, and for this I have come into the world, that I might bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.

³⁸ Pilate says to him, What is truth? And having said this he went out again to the Jews, and says to them, I find no fault whatever in him.

³⁹ But ye have a custom that I release [some] one to you at the passover; will ye therefore that I release unto you the king of the Jews?
