Luke 23:18-23

Pilate Delivers Jesus to Be Crucified

18  a But they all cried out together b “Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas”— 19 a man who had been thrown into prison for an insurrection started in the city and c for murder. 20 Pilate addressed them once more, desiring to release Jesus, 21 but they kept shouting, “Crucify, crucify him!” 22 A third time he said to them, “Why d what evil has he done? e I have found in him no guilt deserving death. f I will therefore punish and release him.” 23 But they were urgent, demanding with loud cries that he should be crucified. And their voices prevailed.
