Mark 6:23
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”
In context
21 On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.
22 When the daughter of Herodias came and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests, and the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.”
23 And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”
24 Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”
25 At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”
