22and 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.

23And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.

24And she went out, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptizer.

25And 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.

26And the king was exceeding sorry; but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat, he would not reject her.

27And 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,

28and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the damsel; and the damsel gave it to her mother.
