Mark 6:23-25

New International Version

²³ And he promised her with an oath, “Whatever you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom.”^(A)

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

“The head of John the Baptist,” she answered.

²⁵ At once the girl hurried in to the king with the request: “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”
