John 18:30 in Context — John 18

28 Ils conduisirent Jésus de chez Caïphe au prétoire: c’était le matin. Ils n’entrèrent point eux-mêmes dans le prétoire, afin de ne pas se souiller, et de pouvoir manger la Pâque.

29 Pilate sortit donc pour aller à eux, et il dit: Quelle accusation portez-vous contre cet homme?

30 Ils lui répondirent: Si ce n’était pas un malfaiteur, nous ne te l’aurions pas livré.

31 Sur quoi Pilate leur dit: Prenez-le vous-mêmes, et jugez-le selon votre loi. Les Juifs lui dirent: Il ne nous est pas permis de mettre personne à mort.

32 C’était afin que s’accomplît la parole que Jésus avait dite, lorsqu’il indiqua de quelle mort il devait mourir.
