3 Porque Herodes havia prendido a João, acorrentado-o, e posto na prisão, por causa de Herodias, mulher do seu irmão Filipe;
4 pois João lhe dizia: Não te lícito que a tenhas.
5 [Herodes] queria matá-lo, mas tinha medo do povo, pois o consideravam profeta.
6 Porém, enquanto era celebrado o aniversário de Herodes, a filha de Herodias dançou no meio [das pessoas] , e agradou a Herodes.
7 Por isso prometeu a ela dar tudo o que pedisse.
