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.

23 Il ajouta avec serment: Ce que tu me demanderas, je te le donnerai, fût-ce la moitié de mon royaume.

24 Étant sortie, elle dit à sa mère: Que demanderai-je? Et sa mère répondit: La tête de Jean-Baptiste.

25 Elle s’empressa de rentrer aussitôt vers le roi, et lui fit cette demande: Je veux que tu me donnes à l’instant, sur un plat, la tête de Jean-Baptiste.

26 Le roi fut attristé; mais, à cause de ses serments et des convives, il ne voulut pas lui faire un refus.
