Mark 6:26-28

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁶ Then the King was very sorry. Yet for his oath’s sake and for their sakes of those who sat at table with him, he would not refuse her.

²⁷ And immediately the king sent the hangman and gave charge that John Baptist’s head should be brought in. So, he went and beheaded him in the prison,

²⁸ And brought his head on a platter and gave it to the maid. And the maid gave it to her mother.
