Mark 6:14-29

14AndG2532 kingG3588G935 HerodG2264 heardG191 of him; (forG1063 hisG846 nameG3588G3686 wasG1096 spread abroadG5318:) andG2532 he saidG3004, ThatG3754 JohnG2491 the BaptistG907 was risenG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 thereforeG1223 mightyG3588G1411 works do shew forth themselvesG1754 inG1722 himG846.

15OthersG243 saidG3004, ThatG3754 it isG1510 ElijahG2243. AndG1161 othersG243 saidG3004, ThatG3754 it isG1510 a prophetG4396, orG2228 asG5613 oneG1520 of the prophetsG3588G4396.

16ButG1161 when HerodG3588G2264 heardG191 thereof, he saidG3004, ItG3778 isG1510 JohnG2491, whomG3739 IG1473 beheadedG607: heG846 is risenG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498.

17ForG1063 HerodG3588G2264 himselfG846 had sent forthG649 and laid holdG2902 upon JohnG3588G2491, andG2532 boundG1210 himG846 inG1722 prisonG3588G5438 forG1223 Herodias’ sakeG2266, hisG846 brotherG3588G80 Philip’sG5376 wifeG3588G1135: forG3754 he had marriedG1060 herG846.

18ForG1063 JohnG3588G2491 had saidG3004 unto HerodG3588G2264, It isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832 for theeG4771 to haveG2192 thyG4771 brother’sG3588G80 wifeG3588G1135.

19ThereforeG1161 HerodiasG2266 had a quarrelG1758 against himG846, andG2532 wouldG2309 have killedG615 himG846; butG2532 she couldG1410 notG3756:

20ForG1063 HerodG2264 fearedG5399 JohnG3588G2491, knowingG1492 that heG846 was a justG1342 manG435 andG2532 an holyG40, andG2532 observedG4933 himG846; andG2532 when he heardG191 himG846, he didG4160 many thingsG4183, andG2532 heardG191 himG846 gladlyG2234.

21AndG2532 whenG3753 a convenientG2121 dayG2250 was comeG1096, that HerodG2264 on hisG846 birthdayG3588G1077 madeG4160 a supperG1173 to hisG846 lordsG3588G3175, high captainsG3588G5506, andG2532 chiefG3588G4413 estates of GalileeG3588G1056;

22AndG2532 when the daughterG3588G2364 of the saidG846 HerodiasG3588G2266 came inG1525, andG2532 dancedG3738, andG2532 pleasedG700 HerodG3588G2264 andG2532 themG3588 that sat with himG4873, the kingG3588G935 saidG3004 unto the damselG3588G2877, AskG154 of meG1473 whatsoeverG3739 thou wiltG2309, andG2532 I will giveG1325 it theeG4771.

23AndG2532 he swareG3660 unto herG846, WhatsoeverG3739 thou shalt askG154 of meG1473, I will giveG1325 it theeG4771, untoG2193 the halfG2255 of myG1473 kingdomG3588G932.

24AndG1161 she went forthG1831, and saidG3004 unto herG846 motherG3588G3384, WhatG5101 shall I askG154? AndG1161 she saidG3004, The headG3588G2776 of JohnG2491 the BaptistG3588G910.

25AndG2532 she came inG1525 straightwayG2112 withG3326 hasteG4710 untoG4314 the kingG3588G935, and askedG154, sayingG3004, I willG2309 thatG2443 thou giveG1325 meG1473 by and byG1824 inG1909 a chargerG4094 the headG3588G2776 of JohnG2491 the BaptistG3588G910.

26AndG2532 the kingG3588G935 wasG1096 exceeding sorryG4036; yet forG1223 his oath’s sakeG3588G3727, andG2532 for their sakes whichG3588 sat with himG4873, he wouldG2309 notG3756 rejectG114 herG846.

27AndG2532 immediatelyG2112 the kingG3588G935 sentG649 an executionerG4688, and commandedG2004 hisG846 headG3588G2776 to be broughtG5342: andG1161 he wentG565 and beheadedG607 himG846 inG1722 the prisonG3588G5438,

28AndG2532 broughtG5342 hisG846 headG3588G2776 inG1909 a chargerG4094, andG2532 gaveG1325 itG846 to the damselG3588G2877: andG2532 the damselG3588G2877 gaveG1325 itG846 to herG846 motherG3588G3384.

29AndG2532 when hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 heardG191 of it, they cameG2064 andG2532 took upG142 hisG846 corpseG3588G4430, andG2532 laidG5087 itG846 inG1722 a tombG3588G3419.
