6:17 For Herod himself had ordered that John be arrested and bound and imprisoned, on account of his brother Philip’s wife Herodias, whom Herod had married.

6:19 So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

6:20 because Herod feared John and protected him, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man. When he heard John’s words, he was greatly perplexed; yet he listened to him gladly.

6:21 On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

6:22 When the daughter of Herodias came and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests, and the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.”

6:23 And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

6:24 Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

6:25 At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”

6:26 The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

6:27 So without delay, the king commanded that John’s head be brought in. He sent an executioner, who went and beheaded him in the prison.

6:28 The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

6:29 When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.
