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

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

    19Herodias set herself against him, and desired to kill him, but she couldn't,

    20for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he did many things, and he heard him gladly.

    21Then a convenient day came, that Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.

    22When the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young lady, "Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."

    23He swore to her, "Whatever you shall ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom."

    24She went out, and said to her mother, "What shall I ask?" She said, "The head of John the Baptizer."

    25She came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, "I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter."

    26The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths, and of his dinner guests, he didn't wish to refuse her.

    27Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring John's head, and he went and beheaded him in the prison,

    28and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.

    29When his disciples heard this, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
