1
About that time Herod the Tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
2
and he said to his courtiers, "This is John the Baptist: he has come back to life--and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him."
3
For Herod had arrested John, and had put him in chains, and imprisoned him, for the sake of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,
4
because John had persistently said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."
5
And he would have liked to put him to death, but was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a Prophet.
6
But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before all the company, and so pleased Herod
7
that with an oath he promised to give her whatever she asked.
