17For HerodG2264 himselfG846 had sentG649 and had JohnG2491 arrestedG2902 and boundG1210 in prisonG5438 on accountG1223 of 1HerodiasG2266, the wifeG1135 of his brotherG80 PhilipG5376, becauseG3754 he had marriedG1060 her.

18For JohnG2491 had been sayingG3004 to HerodG2264, “2It is not lawfulG1832 for you to haveG2192 your brother’sG80 wifeG1135.”

193HerodiasG2266 hadG1758 a grudgeG1758 againstG1758 him and wantedG2309 to putG615 him to deathG615 and couldG1410 not do so;

20for 4HerodG2264 was afraidG5399 of JohnG2491, knowingG3609 that he was a righteousG1342 and holyG40 manG435, and he keptG4933 him safeG4933. And when he heardG191 him, he was veryG4183 perplexedG639; 5but he 6used to enjoyG2234 listeningG191 to him.
