    1At that time, Herod, the tetrarch, heard the news about Jesus.

    2And he said to his servants, 'This is John the Baptist. He has been raised from the dead, and that is why miraculous powers are at work in him.'

    3For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.

    4For John had been telling him, 'It is not lawful for you to have her.'

    9The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered it to be given to her.

    10So he sent orders and had John beheaded in the prison.

    11His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
