In context
21 And, an opportune day arriving, when Herod on his birthday made a feast for his nobles, and for the rulers of thousands and for the first men of Galilee,
22 when the daughter of this very Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those reclining together, and, the king, said unto the damsel—Ask me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee;
23 and he took an oath to her—Whatsoever thou shalt ask me, I will give thee, unto half my kingdom.
24 And, going out, she said unto her mother—What shall I ask? and she said—The head of John the Immerser;
25 And, coming in straightway, with hast, unto the king, she asked, saying—I desire, that, forthwith, thou give me, upon a charger, the head of John the Immerser.
26 And, though the king was, very grieved, yet, by reason of the oaths, and of them who were reclining, he would not refuse her.
27 And the king, straightway, sending off a guard, gave orders to bring his head.
