23 And he swore to her, Whatever you shall ask of me, I will give it you, to the half of my kingdom. 24 And she went forth, and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist. 25 And she came in straightway with haste to the king, and asked, saying, I will that you 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.
