Mark 6:25-28

25And she came in immediately with haste to the king and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

26And the king was exceedingly sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he did not want to break his word to her.

27And immediately the king sent an executioner with orders to bring John's head. He went and beheaded him in the prison

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