Matthew 14:5
3 Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,
4 because John had been telling him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.
6 On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod
7 so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.
