19:8 When Pilate heard what they said, 1 he was more afraid than ever, 2 19:9 and he went back into the governor’s residence 3 and said to Jesus, “Where do you come from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. 19:10 So Pilate said, 4 “Do you refuse to speak to me? Don’t you know I have the authority 5 to release you, and to crucify you?” 6
1 tn Grk “heard this word.”
2 tn Grk “became more afraid.”
3 tn Grk “into the praetorium.”
5 tn Grk “said to him.” The words “to him” are not translated because they are unnecessary in contemporary English style.
6 tn Or “the power.”
7 tn Grk “know that I have the authority to release you and the authority to crucify you.” Repetition of “the authority” is unnecessarily redundant English style.
