Mark 6:19-21

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁹ Therefore Herodias conspired against him and would have killed him, but she could not.

²⁰ For Herod feared John (knowing that he was a just and holy man) and respected him. And when he heard him, he did so gladly.

²¹ But the opportunity came when Herod, on his birthday, made a banquet to his princes and captains and chief leaders of Galilee.
