New Testament

Mark 6:10-19 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

10. And he said to them, “Whenever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.

11. And whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, as you go out from there, shake off the dust that is on your feet for a testimony against them.”

12. And they went out and proclaimed that people should repent.

13. And they were expelling many demons and anointing many sick people with olive oil and healing them.

14. And King Herod heard it, because his name had become known. And they were saying, “John, the one who baptizes, has been raised from the dead, and because of this these miraculous powers are at work in him.”

15. But others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and others were saying, “He is a prophet like one of the prophets.”

16. But when Herod heard it, he said, “John whom I beheaded—this one has been raised!”

17. For Herod himself had sent and arrested John and bound him in prison because of Herodias, the wife of Philip his brother, because he had married her.

18. For John had been saying to Herod, “It is not permitted for you to have your brother’s wife.”

19. So Herodias held a grudge against him and was wanting to kill him, and was not able to do so.
