They answered and said to him, "If this man were not doing evil, we would not have handed him over to you!"
From this [point on] Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews shouted, saying, "If you release this man, you are not a friend of Caesar! Everyone who makes himself out to be a king opposes Caesar!"

Then Pilate entered again into the governor's residence and summoned Jesus and said to him, "Are you the king of the Jews?"
And they put above his head the charge against him {in writing}: "This is Jesus, the king of the Jews."
And Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" And he answered him [and] said, "You say [so]."
And the inscription of the charge against him was written, "The king of the Jews."
And they began to accuse him, saying, "We have found this man misleading our nation and forbidding [us] to pay taxes to Caesar, and saying [he] himself is Christ, a king!" And Pilate asked him, saying, "Are you the king of the Jews?" And he answered him [and] said, "You say [so]."
And there was also an inscription over him, "This [is] the king of the Jews."
And Pilate also wrote a notice and placed [it] on the cross, and it was written: "Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews." So many of the Jews read this notice, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. And it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, [and] in Greek. Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write 'The king of the Jews,' but, 'He said, I am king of the Jews.'" read more.
Pilate replied, "What I have written, I have written."
Pilate replied, "What I have written, I have written."
