Matthew 14:10

7 whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.

8 And she having been instigated by her mother -- `Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;

9 and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;

10 and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,

11 and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.

12 And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,

13 and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.
