Mark 6
25 Ref And she came in quickly to the king, and said, My desire is that you give me straight away on a plate the head of John the Baptist.
26 Ref And the king was very sad; but because of his oaths, and those who were with him at table, he would not say 'No' to her.
27 Ref And straight away the king sent out one of his armed men, and gave him an order to come back with the head: and he went and took off John's head in prison,
28 And came back with the head on a plate, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.
