Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Luke 23
⁵ But they kept on insisting, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching all over Judea, starting from Galilee even as far as this place."
⁶ When Pilate heard it, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
⁷ And when he learned that He belonged to Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself also was in Jerusalem at that time.
⁸ Now Herod was very glad when he saw Jesus; for he had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had been hearing about Him and was hoping to see some sign performed by Him.
⁹ And he questioned Him at some length; but He answered him nothing.
¹⁰ And the chief priests and the scribes were standing there, accusing Him vehemently.
¹¹ And Herod with his soldiers, after treating Him with contempt and mocking Him, dressed Him in a gorgeous robe and sent Him back to Pilate.
¹² Now Herod and Pilate became friends with one another that very day; for before they had been enemies with each other.
¹³ Pilate summoned the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
¹⁴ and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one who incites the people to rebellion, and behold, having examined Him before you, I have found no guilt in this man regarding the charges which you make against Him.
¹⁵ No, nor has Herod, for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing deserving death has been done by Him.
