Mark 6:17-30

17For HerodG2264 himself had sentG649 forthG649 and laidG2902 holdG2902 upon JohnG2491, and boundG1210 him in prisonG5438 for the sakeG1223 of HerodiasG2266, his brotherG80 Philip’s wifeG1135; for he had marriedG1060 her. 18For JohnG2491 saidG3004 unto HerodG2264, It is not lawfulG1832 for thee to have thy brother’sG80 wifeG1135. 19And HerodiasG2266 set herself against him, and desiredG2309 to killG615 him; and she could not; 20for HerodG2264 fearedG5399 JohnG2491, knowing that he was a righteousG1342 and holyG40 manG435, and kept him safe. And when he heardG191 him, he was muchG4183 perplexedG639; and he heardG191 him gladlyG2234. 21And whenG3753 a convenient dayG2250 was comeG1096, that HerodG2264 on his birthdayG1077 madeG4160 a supperG1173 to his lords, and the high captains, and the chief men of GalileeG1056; 22and when the daughterG2364 of HerodiasG2266 herself cameG1525 in and dancedG3738, she pleasedG700 HerodG2264 and them that sat at meat with him; and the kingG935 saidG3004 unto the damsel, AskG154 of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will giveG1325 it thee. 23And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt askG154 of me, I will giveG1325 it thee, unto the halfG2255 of my kingdomG932. 24And she wentG1831 out, and saidG3004 unto her motherG3384, What shall I askG154? And she saidG3004, The headG2776 of JohnG2491 the Baptizer. 25And she cameG1525 in straightway with haste unto the kingG935, and askedG154, sayingG3004, I willG2309 that thou forthwith giveG1325 me on a platterG4094 the headG2776 of JohnG2491 the BaptistG910. 26And the kingG935 was exceeding sorry; but for the sakeG1223 of his oathsG3727, and of them that sat at meat, he would not rejectG114 her. 27And straightway the kingG935 sentG649 forthG649 a soldier of his guard, and commandedG2004 to bringG5342 his headG2776: and he wentG565 and beheadedG607 him in the prisonG5438, 28and broughtG5342 his headG2776 on a platterG4094, and gaveG1325 it to the damsel; and the damsel gaveG1325 it to her motherG3384. 29And when his disciplesG3101 heardG191 thereof, they cameG2064 and tookG142 up his corpse, and laidG5087 it in a tombG3419.

30And the apostlesG652 gatherG4863 themselves togetherG4863 unto JesusG2424; and they toldG518 him all thingsG3956, whatsoever they had done, and whatsoever they had taughtG1321.
