¹² But when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he did not answer.^(A)

⁶³ But Jesus was silent. Then the high priest said to him, “I put you under oath before the living God, tell us if you are the Messiah,^[a] the Son of God.”^(A)

²³ When he was abused, he did not return abuse; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but he entrusted himself to the one who judges justly.^(A)

³² Now the passage of the scripture that he was reading was this:

⁹ He entered his headquarters again and asked Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.^{(A) 10} Pilate therefore said to him, “Do you refuse to speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you and power to crucify you?” ¹¹ Jesus answered him, “You would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above; therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.”^(B)

³ Then the chief priests accused him of many things. ⁴ Pilate asked him again, “Have you no answer? See how many charges they bring against you.” ⁵ But Jesus made no further reply, so that Pilate was amazed.^(A)

¹⁴ But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge, so that the governor was greatly amazed.^(A)
