Luke 23:2-9

²They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting our nation, forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”

³Pilate asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus answered him and said, “You say so.”

⁴Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no fault in this man.”

⁵But they were insisting, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”

⁶So when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.

⁷When he discovered that he was under Herod's authority, he sent Jesus to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in those days.

⁸When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, because he had wanted to see him for a long time. He had heard about him and he hoped to see some miracle done by him.

⁹Herod questioned Jesus in many words, but Jesus answered him nothing.
