John 18:37-39

New American Standard Bible

³⁷ Therefore Pilate said to Him, “So You are a king?” Jesus answered, “^(A)You say correctly that I am a king. For this purpose I have been born, and for this I have come into the world: ^(B)to testify to the truth. ^(C)Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice.” ³⁸ Pilate *said to Him, “What is truth?”

And after saying this, he ^(D)came out again to the Jews and *said to them, “^(E)I find no grounds at all for charges in ^[a]His case. ^39 (F)However, you have a custom that I release one prisoner ^[b]for you at the Passover; therefore do you wish that I release ^[c]for you the King of the Jews?”
