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 Pois o próprio Herodes mandara prender João e acorrentá-lo no cárcere, por causa de Herodíades, mulher de seu irmão Filipe, com a qual ele se tinha casado.
18 João tinha dito a Herodes: Não te é permitido ter a mulher de teu irmão.
