And ^ethey bound Jesus and ^fled him away and ^gdelivered him over to ^hPilate. 2 ⁱAnd Pilate asked him, ^j“Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, ^k“You have said so.” 3 And the chief priests accused him of many things. 4 And Pilate again asked him, ^l“Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.” 5 But Jesus ^lmade no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.
