Pilate therefore said unto Him, Art Thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth My voice. |
Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.” |
Therefore Pilate said to Him, “So You are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say correctly that I am a king. For this purpose I have been born, and for this I have come into the world: to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice.” |
“You are a king, then!” said Pilate. Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to Me.” |
So Pilate said to Him, “Then You are a King?” Jesus answered, “You say [correctly] that I am a King. This is why I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth [who is a friend of the truth and belongs to the truth] hears and listens carefully to My voice.” |
Then Pilate said to Him, Are You therefore not a king? Answered Jesus, As for you, you are saying that I am a king. I for this purpose have been born and for this purpose have come into the universe, in order that I might bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice. |
“So You are a king, are You?” returned Pilate. “Indeed I am a king,” Jesus replied; “the reason for My birth and the reason for My coming into the world is to witness to the truth. Every man who loves truth recognises My voice.” |
Then Pilate said to Him, “So You are a king then?” Jesus answered, “Certainly I am a king. For this very purpose I was born, for this very purpose I have come into the world, to testify for truth. Everybody who is a friend of truth listens to My voice.” |
Pilate 4091 therefore 3767 said 2036 unto Him, 846 Art 1488 Thou 4771 a king 935 then? 3766 Jesus 2424 answered, 611 Thou 4771 sayest 3004 that 3754 I 1473 am 1510 a king. 935 To 1519 this end 5124 was I 1473 born, 1080 and 2532 for 1519 this cause 5124 came 2064 I into 1519 the 3588 world, 2889 that 2443 I should bear witness 3140 unto the 3588 truth. 225 Every one 3956 that is 5607 of 1537 the 3588 truth 225 heareth 191 My 3450 voice. 5456 |
