Then Pilate went back inside the palace. He ordered Jesus to be brought to him. Pilate asked him,“ Are you the king of the Jews?”

We know that God spoke to Moses. But we don’t even know where this fellow comes from.”The man answered,“ That is really surprising! You don’t know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes.

Here is the part of Scripture the official was reading. It says,“ He was led like a sheep to be killed. Just as lambs are silent while their wool is being cut off, he did not open his mouth.When he was treated badly, he was refused a fair trial. Who can say anything about his children? His life was cut off from the earth.”( Isaiah 53:7, 8)

Jesus answered,“ Even if I am a witness about myself, what I say does count. I know where I came from. And I know where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going.

Then the woman went to her husband. She told him,“ A man of God came to me. He looked like an angel of God. His appearance was so amazing that it filled me with great wonder. I didn’t ask him where he came from. And he didn’t tell me his name.

But when the chief priests and the elders brought charges against him, he did not answer.Then Pilate asked him,“ Don’t you hear the charges they are bringing against you?”But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge. The governor was really amazed.

He was treated badly and made to suffer. But he didn’t open his mouth. He was led away like a lamb to be killed. Sheep are silent while their wool is being cut off. In the same way, he didn’t open his mouth.

But Jesus remained silent. The high priest said to him,“ I am commanding you in the name of the living God. May he judge you if you don’t tell the truth. Tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”

The chief priests brought many charges against him.So Pilate asked him again,“ Aren’t you going to answer? See how many things they charge you with.”But Jesus still did not reply. Pilate was amazed.

So don’t be afraid in any way of those who oppose you. This will show them that they will be destroyed and that you will be saved. That’s what God will do.

“ So you are a king, then!” said Pilate. Jesus answered,“ You say that I am a king. In fact, that’s the reason I was born. I was born and came into the world to be a witness to the truth. Everyone who is on the side of truth listens to me.”

Like a deaf person, I can’t hear. Like someone who can’t speak, I can’t say a word.I’m like someone who doesn’t hear. I’m like someone whose mouth can’t make any reply.Lord, I wait for you to help me. Lord my God, I know you will answer.
