17 For Herod himself had sent men out to take John and put him in prison, because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom he had taken for himself.

18 For John said to Herod, It is wrong for you to have your brother's wife.

17 Porquanto o próprio Herodes mandara prender a João, e encerrá-lo maniatado no cárcere, por causa de Herodias, mulher de seu irmão Filipe; porque ele se havia casado com ela.

18 Pois João dizia a Herodes: Não te é lícito ter a mulher de teu irmão.
