Luke 23:16-25

Noyes(i) 16 I will therefore chastise, and release him. 17 Now it was necessary for him to release to them one at the feast. 18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas; 19 who, for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison. 20 But Pilate again spoke to them, wishing to release Jesus. 21 But they cried out, saying, Crucify, crucify him! 22 And he said to them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found him guilty of nothing deserving death; I will therefore chastise, and release him. 23 But they were urgent with loud voices, demanding that he should he crucified; and their voices prevailed. 24 And Pilate gave sentence that what they demanded should be done. 25 And he released him who for sedition and murder had been cast into prison, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.
