33 Pilate therefore went into the palace again, and called Jesus and said to Him, Art thou the king of the Jews? 34 Jesus answered him, Dost thou say this from thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? 35 Pilate replied, Am I a Jew? thine own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee to me: what hast thou done? 36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have fought, that I might not have been delivered to the Jews: but my kingdom is not from hence. 37 Pilate therefore said unto Him, Art thou then a king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest right, I am a king. For this end was I born, and for this came I into the world, even that I might bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice. 38 Pilate saith unto Him, What is truth? And as soon as he had spoke, he went out again to the Jews, John 18:33-38, Worsley New Testament.
