25 And she came in immediately with haste to the king and[a] asked, saying, “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.” 26 And although he[b] was deeply grieved, the king, because of his[c] oaths and dinner guests,[d] did not want to refuse her. 27 And immediately the king sent an executioner and[e] ordered him[f] to bring his head. And he went and[g] beheaded him in the prison.
