Mark 6:26-28

JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 26 And the king was exceeding sorry, but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat with him, he would not reject her. 27 And straightway the king sent forth a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring his head: 28 and he went and beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the damsel, and the damsel gave it to her mother.
