2 "This is John the Immerser; He arose from the dead; and therefore do the powers work in Him."
3 For Herod, having laid hold of John, bound him, and put him in prison, because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
4 For John said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."
5 And, wishing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because they were holding him as a prophet.
6 But, on a birthday celebration of Herod, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and pleased Herod.
7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
8 And she, urged on by her mother, says, "Give me here upon a plate the head of John the Immerser."
9 And the king, though grieved, yet, because of the oaths and of those sitting at the table with them, ordered it to be given;
10 and, having sent, he beheaded John in the prison;
11 and his head was brought upon a plate, and given to the damsel; and she brought it to her mother.
12 And his disciples, coming, took up the corpse, and buried it; and, coming, they told Jesus;
13 And Jesus, having heard it, withdrew thence, in a boat, into a desert, apart. And the multitudes, hearing of it, followed Him on foot from the cities.
14 And Jesus, coming forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion over them, and healed their sick.
