²⁷ Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him.

²⁸ They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves didn't enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.

³³ Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"

¹ Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,

³⁵ "I will hear you fully when your accusers also arrive." He commanded that he be kept in Herod's palace.

¹⁶ The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.

¹⁷ They clothed him with purple, and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.

¹⁸ They began to salute him, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

¹⁹ They struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and bowing their knees, did homage to him.

²⁰ When they had mocked him, they took the purple off of him, and put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.

³ Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

⁸ When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.

⁹ He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.

¹ When it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan band.
