John 18:33-36
Holman Christian Standard Bible
33 Then Pilate went back into the headquarters, summoned Jesus, and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”(A)
34 Jesus answered, “Are you asking this on your own, or have others told you about Me?”
35 “I’m not a Jew, am I?” Pilate replied. “Your own nation and the chief priests handed You over to me. What have You done?”
36 “My kingdom(B) is not of this world,” said Jesus. “If My kingdom were of this world,(C) My servants[a](D) would fight, so that I wouldn’t be handed over to the Jews. As it is, My kingdom does not have its origin here.”[b](E)
