    16But when Herod heard this, he said,“John, whom I beheaded, has been raised!”

    17For Herod himself had sent men, arrested John, and bound him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, because Herod had married her.

    18For John had repeatedly told Herod,“It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”

    19So Herodias nursed a grudge against him and wanted to kill him. But she could not

    20because Herod stood in awe of John and protected him, since he knew that John was a righteous and holy man. When Herod heard him, he was thoroughly baffled, and yet he liked to listen to John.

    21But a suitable day came, when Herod gave a banquet on his birthday for his court officials, military commanders, and leaders of Galilee.

    22When his daughter Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his dinner guests. The king said to the girl,“Ask me for whatever you want and I will give it to you.”

    23He swore to her,“Whatever you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom.”

    24So she went out and said to her mother,“What should I ask for?” Her mother said,“The head of John the baptizer.”

    6But on Herod’s birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod,

    7so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked.

    8Instructed by her mother, she said,“Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter.”

    9Although it grieved the king, because of his oath and the dinner guests he commanded it to be given.

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

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