Matthew 14:1-5

112At that time 34Herod 5the tetrarch heard the news about Jesus, 2and said to his servants, “6This is John the Baptist; he himself has been raised from the dead, and that is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

3For when 7Herod had John arrested, he bound him and put him 8in prison because of 9Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip. 4For John had been saying to him, “10It is not lawful for you to have her.” 5Although Herod wanted to put him to death, he feared the crowd, because they regarded 11John as 12a prophet.
