Luke 23:15 ASV

¹³  And Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

¹⁴  and said unto them, Ye brought unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people: and behold, I having examined him before you, found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:

¹⁵  no, nor yet Herod: for he sent him back unto us; and behold, nothing worthy of death hath been done by him.

¹⁶  I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

¹⁷  'Now he must needs release unto them at the feast one prisoner.'
