17 For the same Herod had sent and seized John, and had bound him in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of Philip his brother, because he had married her.

18 For John said to Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have the wife of thy brother.

17 Denn er, Herodes, hatte hingesandt und den Johannes greifen und ihn im Gefängnis binden lassen, um der Herodias willen, des Weibes seines Bruders Philippus, weil er sie geheiratet hatte.

18 Denn Johannes hatte dem Herodes gesagt: Es ist dir nicht erlaubt, das Weib deines Bruders zu haben.
