27Peter then denied again; and immediately a rooster crowed.
28Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves did not enter into the Praetorium, lest they might be defiled, but so that they might eat the Passover.
29Then Pilate went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this Man?”
30They answered and said to him, “If He were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him over to you.”
31Then Pilate said to them, “You take Him and judge Him according to your law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to kill anyone,”
32that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled which He said, signifying by what sort of death He was about to die.
