The King James Version Bible

Mark 6:24-26

  1. And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

  2. And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.

  3. 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.
