Mark 6:26-28

21st Century King James Version

²⁶ And the king was exceedingly sorry, yet for his oath’s sake and for their sakes who sat with him, he would not reject her.

²⁷ And immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded John’s head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in prison,

²⁸ and brought his head on a charger and gave it to the damsel; and the damsel gave it to her mother.
