He{G1565} denied{G720}{(G5662)} it, and{G2532} said{G2036}{(G5627)}, I am{G1510}{(G5748)} not{G3756}.

Verse 30

They answered{G611}{(G5662)} and{G2532} said{G2036}{(G5627)} unto him{G846}, If{G1508} he{G3778} were{G2258}{(G5713)} not{G1508} a malefactor{G2555}, we would{G302} not{G3756} have delivered{G3860} him{G846} up{G3860}{(G5656)} unto thee{G4671}.

Pilate{G4091} answered{G611}{(G5662)},{G3385} Am{G1510}{(G5748)} I{G1473} a Jew{G2453}? Thine own{G4674} nation{G1484} and{G2532} the chief priests{G749} have delivered{G3860}{(G5656)} thee{G4571} unto me{G1698}: what{G5101} hast thou done{G4160}{(G5656)}?

Verse 36

Jesus{G2424} answered{G611}{(G5662)}, My{G1699} kingdom{G932} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} this{G5127} world{G2889}: if{G1487} my{G1699} kingdom{G932} were{G2258}{(G5713)} of{G1537} this{G5127} world{G2889}, then would{G302} my{G1699} servants{G5257} fight{G75}{(G5711)}, that{G3363} I should{G3860} not{G3363} be delivered{G3860}{(G5686)} to the Jews{G2453}: but{G1161} now{G3568} is{G2076}{(G5748)} my{G1699} kingdom{G932} not{G3756} from hence{G1782}.

Verse 37

Jesus{G2424} answered{G611}{(G5662)}, Thou{G4771} sayest{G3004}{(G5719)} that{G3754} I{G1473} am{G1510}{(G5748)} a king{G935}. To{G1519} this{G5124} end was{G1080} I{G1473} born{G1080}{(G5769)}, and{G2532} for{G1519} this{G5124} cause came I{G2064}{(G5754)} into{G1519} the world{G2889}, that{G2443} I should bear witness{G3140}{(G5661)} unto the truth{G225}. Every one{G3956} that is{G5607}{(G5752)} of{G1537} the truth{G225} heareth{G191}{(G5719)} my{G3450} voice{G5456}.
