²⁴ For John was not yet cast into prison.

¹² Now when he heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee;

³ For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.

¹⁷ For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had married her.

¹⁹ but Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother's wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done,

²⁰ added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.

⁷ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done: and he was much perplexed, because that it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead;

⁸ and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.

⁹ And Herod said, John I beheaded: but who is this, about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
