10and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded me.” 11Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied. 12And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He gave no answer. 13Then Pilate asked Him, “Do You not hear how many charges they are bringing against You?” 14But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amazement.
