John 19:10 ASV

⁸  When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid;

⁹  and he entered into the Praetorium again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

¹⁰  Pilate therefore saith unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? Knowest thou not that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee?

¹¹  Jesus answered him, Thou wouldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath greater sin.

¹²  Upon this Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar's friend: every one that maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
