Mark 6:21-26
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 6
21
An opportune day came when Herod, on his birthday, held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders, and the leading people of Galilee;
22
and when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his dinner guests; and the king said to the girl, 'Ask me for whatever you want, and I will give it to you.'
23
And he swore to her, 'Whatever you ask of me, I will give
it
to you, up to half of my kingdom.'
24
And she went out and said to her mother, 'What shall I ask for?' And she said, 'The head of John the Baptist.'
25
Immediately she came in a hurry to the king and asked, saying, 'I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.'
26
And although the king was very sorry, because of his oaths and his dinner guests, he was unwilling to refuse her.
King James Version
Chapter 6
21
And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee;
22
And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
23
And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.
24
And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.
25
And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.
26
And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.

Chapter 6
21
An opportune time came on his birthday, when Herod gave a banquet for his nobles, military commanders, and the leading men of Galilee.
22
When Herodias’s own daughter came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests. The king said to the girl, "Ask me whatever you want, and I’ll give it to you."
23
He promised her with an oath: "Whatever you ask me I will give you, up to half my kingdom."
24
She went out and said to her mother, "What should I ask for?" "John the Baptist’s head," she said.
25
At once she hurried to the king and said, "I want you to give me John the Baptist’s head on a platter immediately."
26
Although the king was deeply distressed, because of his oaths and the guests he did not want to refuse her.
New Living Translation
Chapter 6
21
Herodias’s chance finally came on Herod’s birthday. He gave a party for his high government officials, army officers, and the leading citizens of Galilee.
22
Then his daughter, also named Herodias, came in and performed a dance that greatly pleased Herod and his guests. 'Ask me for anything you like,' the king said to the girl, 'and I will give it to you.'
23
He even vowed, 'I will give you whatever you ask, up to half my kingdom!'
24
She went out and asked her mother, 'What should I ask for?' Her mother told her, 'Ask for the head of John the Baptist!'
25
So the girl hurried back to the king and told him, 'I want the head of John the Baptist, right now, on a tray!'
26
Then the king deeply regretted what he had said; but because of the vows he had made in front of his guests, he couldn’t refuse her.
