Mark 6:22-25

22and when the daughter of 1Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and 2his dinner guests; and the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you want and I will give it to you.”

23And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give it to you; up to 3half of my kingdom.”

24And she went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask for?” And she said, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Immediately she came in a hurry to the king and asked, saying, “I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”
