Mark 6:20 in Context — Mark 6
18 et que Jean lui disait: Il ne t’est pas permis d’avoir la femme de ton frère.
19 Hérodias était irritée contre Jean, et voulait le faire mourir.
20 Mais elle ne le pouvait; car Hérode craignait Jean, le connaissant pour un homme juste et saint; il le protégeait, et, après l’avoir entendu, il était souvent perplexe, et l’écoutait avec plaisir.
21 Cependant, un jour propice arriva, lorsque Hérode, à l’anniversaire de sa naissance, donna un festin à ses grands, aux chefs militaires et aux principaux de la Galilée.
22 La fille d’Hérodias entra dans la salle; elle dansa, et plut à Hérode et à ses convives. Le roi dit à la jeune fille: Demande-moi ce que tu voudras, et je te le donnerai.
