    16But when Herod heard of it, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded; he is risen from the dead.

    17For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, for he had married her.

    18For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.

    19Therefore Herodias held a grudge against him, and wanted to kill him; but she could not:

    20For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.

    21And when a convenient day came, that Herod on his birthday made a supper for his lords, high captains, and chief men of Galilee;

    22And when the daughter of Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and those who sat with him, the king said to the girl, Ask of me whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.

    23And he swore to her, Whatever you ask of me, I will give it to you, up to half of my kingdom.

    24And she went out, and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

    25And she came in straightway with haste to the king, and asked, saying, I want you to give me at once on a platter the head of John the Baptist.

    26And the king was exceedingly sorry; yet because of his oath's sake, and for the sakes of those who sat with him, he would not refuse her.

    27And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,

    28And brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl: and the girl gave it to her mother.
