2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2So Pilate asked Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" He answered him, "You have said it." |
3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3And the chief priests began to accuse Him of many things. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Then Pilate questioned Him again, "Are You not answering anything? Look how many things they are accusing You of!" |

12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Pilate asked them again, "Then what do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?" |
13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13Again they shouted, "Crucify Him!" |
14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Then Pilate said to them, "Why? What has He done wrong?" But they shouted, "Crucify Him!" all the more. |
