6 When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, “Crucify him, crucify him!” Pilate said to them, ^g“Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no guilt in him.” 7 The Jews¹ answered him, “We have a law, and ^haccording to that law ⁱhe ought to die because he has ^jmade himself the Son of God.” 8 When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid. 9 He entered his headquarters again and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus ^kgave him no answer. 10 So Pilate said to him, “You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?” 11 Jesus answered him, ^l“You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore ^mhe who delivered me over to you has the greater sin.”
