Mark 6:17-20

17For Herod himself sent and arrested John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip, because Herod had married her.

18For John had been telling Herod, “It is not permitted for you to have your brother’s wife.”

19Now Herodias had a grudge against John and wanted to kill him, but she wasn’t able.

20For Herod was in awe of John and kept him safe, knowing him to be a righteous and holy man. When he listened to John he was confused, but he still listened gladly.
