Mark 6:13-22

¹³And they cast out many deuils: and they anointed many that were sicke, with oyle, and healed them.

¹⁴Then King Herod heard of him (for his name was made manifest) and sayd, Iohn Baptist is risen againe from the dead, and therefore great workes are wrought by him.

¹⁵Other sayd, It is Elias, and some sayd, It is a Prophet, or as one of those Prophets.

¹⁶So when Herod heard it, he said, It is Iohn whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.

¹⁷For Herod him selfe had sent forth, and had taken Iohn, and bound him in prison for Herodias sake, which was his brother Philippes wife, because he had maried her.

¹⁸For Iohn sayd vnto Herod, It is not lawfull for thee to haue thy brothers wife.

¹⁹Therefore Herodias layd waite against him, and would haue killed him, but she could not:

²⁰For Herod feared Iohn, knowing that hee was a iust man, and an holy, and reuerenced him, and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.

²¹But the time being conuenient, when Herod on his birth day made a banket to his princes and captaines, and chiefe estates of Galile:

²²And the daughter of the same Herodias came in, and daunced, and pleased Herod, and them that sate at table together, the King sayd vnto the mayde, Aske of me what thou wilt, and I will giue it thee.
