Matthew 14:1-5

1At that seasonG2540 HerodG2264 the tetrarch heardG191 the reportG189 concerning JesusG2424,

2and saidG3004 unto his servantsG3816, This isG1510 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910; he isG1510 risenG1453 from the deadG3498; and therefore do these powersG1411 workG1754 in him.

3For HerodG2264 had laid holdG2902 on JohnG2491, and boundG1210 him, and putG659 him in prisonG5438 for the sakeG1223 of HerodiasG2266, his brotherG80 Philip’s wifeG1135.

4For JohnG2491 saidG3004 unto him, It is not lawfulG1832 for thee to have her.

5And whenG5613 he would have putG615 him to deathG615, he fearedG5399 the multitudeG3793, because they counted him as a prophetG4396.
