Luke:23:18-25

*
And they cried out all at once ,
saying ,
Away with this man ,
and release unto us Barabbas :
* (
Who for a certain sedition made in the city ,
and for murder ,
was cast into prison .)
*
Pilate therefore ,
willing to release Jesus ,
spake again to them .
*
But they cried ,
saying ,
Crucify him ,
crucify him .
*
And he said unto them the third time ,
Why ,
what evil hath he done ?
I have found no cause of death in him :
I will therefore chastise him ,
and let him go .
*
And they were instant with loud voices ,
requiring that he might be crucified .
And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed .
*
And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required .
*
And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison ,
whom they had desired ;
but he delivered Jesus to their will .
