Luke 23:18-25
New Matthew Bible
18 And all the people cried out at once, saying, Away with him, and release Barabbas to us! 19 (who for insurrection made in the city and for murder had been cast into prison).
20 Pilate spoke again to them, wanting to let Jesus go free. 21 But they shouted, saying, Crucify him! Crucify him!
22 He said to them the third time, What evil has he done? I find no cause of death in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.
23 But they called with loud voices for him to be crucified.
And the voice of the people and of the high priests prevailed, 24 and Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required, 25 and released to them the one who for insurrection and murder had been cast into prison, whom they desired, and delivered Jesus to do with him what they would.

1599 Geneva Bible
18 Then all the multitude cried at once, saying, Away with him, and deliver unto us Barabbas:
19 Which for a certain insurrection made in the city, and murder, was cast in prison.
20 Then Pilate spake again to them, willing to let Jesus loose.
21 But they cried, saying, Crucify, crucify him.
22 [a]And he said unto them the third time, But what evil hath he done? I find no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him loose.
23 But they were instant with loud voices, and required that he might be crucified: and the voices of them and of the high Priests prevailed.
24 So Pilate gave sentence, that it should be as they required.
25 And he let loose unto them him that for insurrection and murder was cast into prison, whom they desired, and delivered Jesus to do with him what they would.
