Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ The Iewes answered him, We haue a lawe, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himselfe the Sonne of God. ⁸ When Pilate then heard that woorde, he was the more afraide, ⁹ And went againe into the common hall, and saide vnto Iesus, Whence art thou? But Iesus gaue him none answere. ¹⁰ Then saide Pilate vnto him, Speakest thou not vnto me? Knowest thou not that I haue power to crucifie thee, and haue power to loose thee? ¹¹ Iesus answered, Thou couldest haue no power at all against me, except it were giuen thee from aboue: therefore he that deliuered me vnto thee, hath the greater sinne. ¹² From thence foorth Pilate sought to loose him, but the Iewes cried, saying, If thou deliuer him, thou art not Cesars friende: for whosoeuer maketh himselfe a King, speaketh against Cesar.
