John 19:10 DBY

⁸  When Pilate therefore heard this word, he was the rather afraid,

⁹  and went into the praetorium again and says to Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

¹⁰  Pilate therefore says to him, Speakest thou not to *me*? Dost thou not know that I have authority to release thee and have authority to crucify thee?

¹¹  Jesus answered, Thou hadst no authority whatever against me if it were not given to thee from above. On this account he that has delivered me up to thee has [the] greater sin.

¹²  From this time Pilate sought to release him; but the Jews cried out saying, If thou releasest this [man], thou art not a friend to Caesar. Every one making himself a king speaks against Caesar.
