37 “You are a king, then!” said Pilate.
Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth.(A) Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”(B)

40 They shouted back, “No, not him! Give us Barabbas!” Now Barabbas had taken part in an uprising.(D)
