Mark 6:24-28

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.”

26And although the king was very sorry, yet because of his oaths and because of 1his dinner guests, he was unwilling to refuse her.

27Immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded him to bring back his head. And he went and had him beheaded in the prison,

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