'Plead' in the Bible

So the demons began to plead with Jesus, saying, "If you drive us out, send us into that herd of pigs."

"Then the older son became angry and wouldn't go into the house. So his father came out and began to plead with him.

Then he went on to plead, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom!"

Using many different expressions, Peter continued to testify and to plead: "Be saved," he urged them, "from this corrupt generation!"

Therefore, we are the Messiah's representatives, as though God were pleading through us. We plead on the Messiah's behalf: "Be reconciled to God!"

Since, then, we are working with God, we plead with you not to accept God's grace in vain.

Now I myself, Paul, plead with you with the gentleness and kindness of the Messiah I who am humble when I am face to face with you but forceful toward you when I am away!
