Matthew 14:5 DBY

³  For Herod had seized John, and had bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother.

⁴  For John said to him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

⁵  And [while] desiring to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they held him for a prophet.

⁶  But when Herod's birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod;

⁷  whereupon he promised with oath to give her whatsoever she should ask.
