Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
“You take Him and judge Him by your own law,” Pilate told them. “We are not permitted to execute anyone,” the Jews replied.
Pilate therefore said to them, “Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is illegal for us to put anyone to death,”

In context
28 Kisha wakamchukua Yesu toka kwa Kayafa mpaka kwenye Praitorio. Ilikwa asubuhi na mapema. Wao wenyewe hawakuiingia ile Praitorio ili wasije wakanajisika na kuila pasaka.
29 Kwa hiyo Pilato akawaendea akisema. “Ni shitaka gani linalomhusu huyu mtu?”
30 Wakamjibu na kumwambia, “Kama huyu mtu asingekuwa mtenda maovu, tusingemleta kwako.”
31 Pilato akawaambia, “Mchukueni ninyi wenyewe, mkamhukumu kulingana na sheria yenu.” Nao Wayahudi wakamwambia, “Sheria haituruhusu sisi kumwua mtu yeyote.”
32 Walisema haya ili neno la Yesu litimilike, neno ambalo alikuwa amekwisha sema juu ya aina ya kifo chake.
33 Basi Pilato akaingia tena Praitorio akumwita Yesu; akamwambia, “Je, wewe ni mfalme wa Wayahudi?”
34 Yesu akamjibu, “Je, wewe waniuliza swali hili kwa Sababu wataka kujua au kwa sababu wengine wamekutuma ili uniulize mimi?”
