Luke 23:23-25

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²³ But they were insistent and urgent, demanding with loud cries that He should be crucified. And their voices prevailed (accomplished their purpose).

²⁴ And Pilate gave sentence, that what they asked should be done.

²⁵ So he released the man who had been thrown into prison for riot and murder, for whom they continued to ask, but Jesus he delivered up to be done with as they willed.
