Herod Kills John the Baptist
14At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report about Jesus 2and he said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist! He has been raised from the dead, and for this reason miraculous powers are at work in him.” 3For Herod, after* arresting John, bound him and put him* in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip, 4because John had been saying to him, “It is not permitted for you to have her.” 5And although he* wanted to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they looked upon him as a prophet.
6But when* Herod’s birthday celebration took place, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst of them and pleased Herod. 7Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. 8And coached by her mother, she said, “Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter!” 9And although* the king was distressed, because of his oaths and his dinner guestsa he commanded the request* to be granted. 10And he sent orders* and* had John beheaded in the prison, 11and his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it* to her mother. 12And his disciples came and* took away the corpse and buried it, and went and* told Jesus.
