asv@Mark:6:14 @And king Herod heard [thereof]; for his name had become known: and he said, John the Baptizer is risen from the dead, and therefore do these powers work in him.
asv@Mark:6:15 @But others said, It is Elijah. And others said, [It is] a prophet, [even] as one of the prophets.
asv@Mark:6:16 @But Herod, when he heard [thereof], said, John, whom I beheaded, he is risen.
asv@Mark:6:17 @For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had married her.
asv@Mark:6:18 @For John said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.
asv@Mark:6:19 @And Herodias set herself against him, and desired to kill him; and she could not;
asv@Mark:6:20 @for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. And when he heard him, he was much perplexed; and he heard him gladly.
asv@Mark:6:21 @And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, and the high captains, and the chief men of Galilee;
asv@Mark:6:22 @and when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and them that sat at meat with him; and the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
asv@Mark:6:23 @And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.
asv@Mark:6:24 @And she went out, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptizer.
asv@Mark:6:25 @And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou forthwith give me on a platter the head of John the Baptist.
asv@Mark:6:26 @And the king was exceeding sorry; but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat, he would not reject her.
asv@Mark:6:27 @And straightway the king sent forth a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring his head: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
asv@Mark:6:28 @and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the damsel; and the damsel gave it to her mother.
asv@Mark:6:29 @And when his disciples heard [thereof], they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
