Luke 23:18-25

WPNT(i) 18 But they all cried out together, saying: “Away with this one! Release to us Barabbas!”— 19 who had been thrown into prison for a certain insurrection in the city, and for murder. 20 Then Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed them again. 21 But they just kept shouting: “Crucify! Crucify him!” 22 For the third time he said to them: “But what evil has this man done? I have found no reason for death in him. I will therefore flog and release him.” 23 But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices that He be crucified! And their voices, especially of the chief priests, prevailed. 24 So Pilate decided to grant their demand. 25 He released the one who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
