27 希律王立刻差遣一个侍卫， 吩咐把约翰的头拿来。侍卫就去了， 在监里斩了约翰的头，

28 把头放在盘子上， 拿来交给那女孩子， 女孩子又交给她的母亲。

27 Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard and commanded to bring John’s head; and he went and beheaded him in the prison, 28 and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.
