This from Louw-Nida:

37.30 CARIZOMAI: to hand someone over into the control of
another person, without some reasonable cause - ‘to hand
over to, to put into the control of someone.’ OUK ESTIN EQOS
RWMAIOIS CARIZESQAI TINA ANQROPON ‘it is not the custom
of Romans to hand someone over without a cause’ Ac 25.16.
Louw, Johannes P. and Nida, Eugene A., Greek-English
Lexicon of the New Testament based on Semantic Domains, 1988,
1989.

'Deliver' in the sense of delivering a prisoner to the jailers, not
delivering him from evil.
