John 18:28-30

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Jesus before Pilate

²⁸ Then they led Jesus from the house of Ca′iaphas to the praetorium. It was early. They themselves did not enter the praetorium, so that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.^{[a] 29} So Pilate went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?”^{[b] 30} They answered him, “If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have handed him over.”
