* But when Herod 's birthday was kept , the daughter of Herodias danced before them , and pleased Herod . * Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask . * And she , being before instructed of her mother , said , Give me here John Baptist 's head in a charger . * And the king was sorry : nevertheless for the oath 's sake , and them which sat with him at meat , he commanded it to be given her . * And he sent , and beheaded John in the prison . * And his head was brought in a charger , and given to the damsel : and she brought it to her mother .
