Luke 23:21-23

21 But they shouted back, "Crucify him! Crucify him!
22 Pilate said to them the third time, "But what crime has he committed? I cannot find anything he has done to deserve death! I will have him whipped and set him free."
23 But they kept on shouting at the top of their voices that Jesus should be crucified, and finally their shouting succeeded.
