9 Herod questioned Jesus at length, but Jesus didn’t respond to him.
10 The chief priests and the legal experts were there, fiercely accusing Jesus.
11 Herod and his soldiers treated Jesus with contempt. Herod mocked him by dressing Jesus in elegant clothes and sent him back to Pilate.
12 Pilate and Herod became friends with each other that day. Before this, they had been enemies.
13 Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people.
14 He said to them, "You brought this man before me as one who was misleading the people. I have questioned him in your presence and found nothing in this man’s conduct that provides a legal basis for the charges you have brought against him.
15 Neither did Herod, because Herod returned him to us. He’s done nothing that deserves death.
