Jesus before Pilate for the first time

Saint John - Chapter 18


For this was I born...for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. J-J T.
[29] Exivit ergo Pilatus ad eos foras, et dixit : Quam accusationem affertis adversus hominem hunc?
Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation bring you against this man?

[30] Responderunt, et dixerunt ei : Si non esset hic malefactor, non tibi tradidissemus eum.
They answered, and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up to thee.

[31] Dixit ergo eis Pilatus : Accipite eum vos, et secundum legem vestram judicate eum. Dixerunt ergo ei Judaei : Nobis non licet interficere quemquam.
Pilate therefore said to them: Take him you, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any man to death;

[32] Ut sermo Jesu impleretur, quem dixit, significans qua morte esset moriturus.
That the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he said, signifying what death he should die.

[33] Introivit ergo iterum in praetorium Pilatus : et vocavit Jesum, et dixit ei : Tu es rex Judaeorum?
Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

[34] Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me?
Respondit Jesus : A temetipso hoc dicis, an alii dixerunt tibi de me?

[35] Respondit Pilatus : Numquid ego Judæus sum? gens tua et pontifices tradiderunt te mihi : quid fecisti?
Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?

[36] Respondit Jesus : Regnum meum non est de hoc mundo. Si ex hoc mundo esset regnum meum, ministri mei utique decertarent ut non traderer Judaeis : nunc autem regnum meum non est hinc.
Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.

[37] Dixit itaque ei Pilatus : Ergo rex es tu? Respondit Jesus : Tu dicis quia rex sum ego. Ego in hoc natus sum, et ad hoc veni in mundum, ut testimonium perhibeam veritati : omnis qui est ex veritate, audit vocem meam.
Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice.

[38] Dicit ei Pilatus : Quid est veritas? Et cum hoc dixisset, iterum exivit ad Judæos, et dicit eis : Ego nullam invenio in eo causam.
Pilate saith to him: What is truth? And when he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them: I find no cause in him.

Totus tuus ego sum 
Et omnia mea tua sunt;
Tecum semper tutus sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
