14:1 那时分封的王希律听见耶稣的名声，
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,
14:2 就对臣仆说，这是施浸者约翰从死人中复活了，所以这些异能发显在他身上。
And he said to his servants, This is John the Baptist; he has been raised from the dead, and because of this these works of power are operating through him.
14:3 原来希律为他兄弟腓力的妻子希罗底的缘故，把约翰拿住，捆锁起来，关藏在监里。
For Herod had seized John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of Philip his brother.
14:4 因为约翰曾对他说，你不可娶这妇人。
For John had been saying to him, It is not lawful for you to have her.
14:5 希律想要杀他，只是怕群众，因他们都以约翰为申言者。
And though he desired to kill him, he feared the crowd because they held him as a prophet.
14:6 到了希律的生日，希罗底的女儿在众人中间跳舞，使希律欢喜。
But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced in their midst and pleased Herod;
14:7 因此希律就起誓，应许她无论求什么都给她。
Hence, he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked.
14:8 她受她母亲唆使，就说，请把施浸者约翰的头，放在盘子上给我。
And she, being instigated by her mother, said, Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.
14:9 王虽忧愁，但因所起的誓，又因同席的人，就吩咐给她。
And the king was grieved, yet because of the oaths and those reclining at table with him, he commanded it to be given.
14:10 于是打发人去，在监里斩了约翰，
And he sent men and beheaded John in the prison.
14:11 把他的头放在盘子上，拿来给闺女，她就拿去给她母亲。
And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
14:12 约翰的门徒进前来，把尸体领去，埋葬了，就去报告耶稣。
And his disciples came and took the corpse and buried it; and they came and reported the matter to Jesus.
