St. Matthew 14:1-5 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

1. At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus

2. and said unto his slaves, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him.

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

4. For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

5. And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude because they counted him as a prophet.
