Mark 6:22-25

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

23He swore to her, “Whatever you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom.”

24So she went out and said to her mother, “What should I ask for?” Her mother said, “The head of John the baptizer.”

25Immediately she hurried back to the king and made her request: “I want the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”
