Luke 23:9-17
-
9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
-
10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
-
11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
-
12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
-
13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
-
14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
-
15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
-
16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
-
17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
