Now Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by John the baptizer, the son of Zechariah, for Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done, had added this also to them all, that he had shut up John in prison. Now Herodias had a grudge against John the baptizer, whom Herod had imprisoned, and wanted to kill him. But she could not, for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he was much perplexed; and yet he heard him gladly. But then a convenient day came, that Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee. When the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young lady, Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you.  

Now Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by John the baptizer the son of Zechariah, for "Hair-roadias" his brother's wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done, had added this also to them all, that he had shut up John in prison.

He swore to her, Whatever you shall ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.  

He swore to her, Whatever you shall ask of me, I will "give" you. up to half of my kingdom.  

She went out, and said to her mother, What shall I ask?  

She went out and said to her mother, What shall I ask?  

She said, The head of John the Baptizer.  

She said, The head of John the Baptizer.  

She came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter.  

She came in immediately with haste to the king and asked, I want you to give me right now, the head of John the Baptizer on a platter.  

The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths, and of his dinner guests, he did not wish to refuse her. Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring John's head, and he went and beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.

At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus; King Herod heard this, and said to his servants, This is John the Baptizer. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him, for his name had become known, and he said, John the Baptizer has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.

But others said, He is Elijah.  

But others said, He is Elijah. Others said, He is a prophet, or like one of the prophets.  

Others said, He is a prophet, or like one of the prophets.  

But Herod when he heard this said, This is John whom I beheaded: He has risen from the dead.  

But Herod, when he heard this said, This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead.”

When his followers heard this, they came and took up his corpse; his disciples came, and took the body, and buried it, and laid it in a tomb. Thus Herod was persuaded that John was indeed dead. Then they went and told Jesus, that When Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of "Hair-roadias" danced among them and pleased Herod. Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask. She, being prompted by her mother, said Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptizer.

The king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given, and he sent and beheaded John in the prison. His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady and she brought it to her mother.

They testified that when they heard this, they went and took the body and buried it and laid it in a tomb, and they came and told Jesus.  

Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him, and he was very perplexed, because it was said by some, that John had risen from the dead, and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again. Herod said, I beheaded John, but who is this about whom I hear such things?
