Pilate Grants the Crowd’s Request
13 And Pilate summoned the chief priests and the (A)rulers and the people, 14 and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one who [a](B)incites the people to rebellion, and behold, having examined Him before you, I (C)have found in this man no guilt of what you are accusing Him. 15 No, nor has (D)Herod, for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing deserving death has been done by Him. 16 Therefore I will (E)punish Him and release Him.”

New Living Translation
13 Then Pilate called together the leading priests and other religious leaders, along with the people, 14 and he announced his verdict. “You brought this man to me, accusing him of leading a revolt. I have examined him thoroughly on this point in your presence and find him innocent. 15 Herod came to the same conclusion and sent him back to us. Nothing this man has done calls for the death penalty. 16 So I will have him flogged, and then I will release him.”[a]
