Mark 6:24-26

World English Bible

²⁴ She went out, and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?”

She said, “The head of John the Baptizer.”

²⁵ She came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter.”

²⁶ The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths, and of his dinner guests, he didn’t wish to refuse her.
