Matthew 14:1-7

1 At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Yeshua,

2 and said to his servants, "This is Yochanan the immerser. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him."

3 For Herod had laid hold of Yochanan, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Pilipos's wife.

4 For Yochanan said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."

5 When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

6 But when Herod's birthday came, 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.
