Mark 6:19-24

19SoG1161 HerodiasG2266 held a grudgeG1758 againstG846 John andG2532 wantedG2309 to killG615 himG846. ButG2532 she had been unableG3756G1410, 20becauseG1063 HerodG2264 fearedG5399 JohnG2491 andG2532 protectedG4933 himG846, knowingG1492 that heG846 was a righteousG1342 andG2532 holyG40 manG435. WhenG2532 he heardG191 John’s words, he was greatly perplexedG4183G639; yetG2532 he listenedG191 to himG846 gladlyG2234.

OnG3588 Herod’s birthdayG1077, her opportunityG2121G2250 aroseG1096. HerodG2264 heldG4160 a banquetG1173 forG3588 hisG846 noblesG3175 andG2532 military commandersG5506 andG2532 theG3588 leadingG4413 men of GalileeG1056. 22When theG3588 daughterG2364 of HerodiasG22661 cameG1525 andG2532 dancedG3738, she pleasedG700 HerodG2264 andG2532 his guestsG3588G4873, andG1161 theG3588 kingG935 saidG2036 to theG3588 girlG2877, “AskG154 meG1473 for whateverG3739 you wishG1437G2309, andG2532 I will giveG1325 it to youG4771.” 23AndG2532 he sworeG3660 to herG846, “WhateverG4183 you askG1437G154 of meG1473, I will giveG1325 youG4771, up toG2193 halfG2255 myG1473 kingdomG932!”

24ThenG2532 she went outG1831 and askedG2036 herG846 motherG3384, “WhatG5101 should I requestG154?”

AndG1161 her mother answeredG2036, “TheG3588 headG2776 of JohnG2491 theG3588 BaptistG907.”
