gltv - Mark:6:14-29

gltv@Mark:6:14 @ And Herod the king heard, for His name became publicly known. And he said, John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and because of this the works of power operate in him.

gltv@Mark:6:15 @ Others said, He is Elijah; and others said, He is a prophet or as one of the prophets.

gltv@Mark:6:16 @ But hearing, Herod said, This one is John whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead.

gltv@Mark:6:17 @ For having sent, Herod himself had seized John and bound him in the prison, because of Herodias the wife of his brother Philip, because he had married her.

gltv@Mark:6:18 @ For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have the wife of your brother.

gltv@Mark:6:19 @ And Herodias held it against him, and desired to kill him, but was not able.

gltv@Mark:6:20 @ For Herod feared John, knowing him to be a holy and just man, and kept him safe. And hearing him, he did many things, and gladly heard from him.

gltv@Mark:6:21 @ And a suitable day having come, when Herod made a dinner for his great ones on his birthday, also the chiliarchs, and the first ones of Galilee.

gltv@Mark:6:22 @ And the daughter of Herodias herself entering, and dancing, she also pleased Herod and those reclining with him. The king said to the girl, Ask me whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.

gltv@Mark:6:23 @ And he swore to her, Whatever you ask me, I will give to you, up to half of my kingdom.

gltv@Mark:6:24 @ And going out, she said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

gltv@Mark:6:25 @ And immediately going in with haste to the king, she asked, saying, I desire that at once you give to me the head of John the Baptist on a platter.

gltv@Mark:6:26 @ And becoming deeply grieved, but because of the oaths and those reclining together, the king did not wish to reject her.

gltv@Mark:6:27 @ And the king sending a guardsman at once, he ordered his head to be brought. And going, he beheaded him in the prison,

gltv@Mark:6:28 @ and brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl. And the girl gave it to her mother.

gltv@Mark:6:29 @ And hearing, his disciples went and took his corpse and placed it in a tomb.
