Matthew 27:1-2 - Jesus Taken To Pilate

¹ When morning came, all the high priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so as to have him put to death. ² After binding him, they led him off and handed him over to Pontius Pilate the governor.

¹ Immediately morning came, the high priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and all the Sanhedrin, and after binding Jesus they led him off and handed him over to Pilate.

² Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" He replied, "Certainly."

³ Then the high priest brought many accusations against him, ⁴ and once more Pilate asked him, "Have you no reply to make? Look at all their charges against you." ⁵ But, to the astonishment of Pilate, Jesus answered no more.
