Mark 6:16-22

¹⁶Which Herod hearing, said: John whom I beheaded, he is risen again from the dead.

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

¹⁸For John said to Herod: It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother’s wife.

¹⁹Now Herodias laid snares for him: and was desirous to put him to death, and could not.

²⁰For Herod feared John, knowing him to be a just and holy man: and kept him, and when he heard him, did many things: and he heard him willingly.

²¹And when a convenient day was come, Herod made a supper for his birthday, for the princes, and tribunes, and chief men of Galilee.

²²And when the daughter of the same Herodias had come in, and had danced, and pleased Herod, and them that were at table with him, the king said to the damsel: Ask of me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
