Matthew 14:1-5

1At that timeG2540 HerodG2264 the tetrarch heardG191 of the fame of JesusG2424,

2and saidG3004 to his servantsG3816, This isG1510 JohnG2491 the baptistG910: he isG1510 risenG1453 from the deadG3498, and because of this these worksG1754 of powerG1411 display their force in him.

3For HerodG2264 had seizedG2902 JohnG2491, and had boundG1210 him and putG659 him in prisonG5438 on accountG1223 of HerodiasG2266 the wifeG1135 of PhilipG5376 his brotherG80.

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

5And [while] desiringG2309 to killG615 him, he fearedG5399 the crowdG3793, because they heldG2192 him for a prophetG4396.
