27 And immediately the king, having sent one of the guard, ordered his head to be brought. And he went out and beheaded him in the prison,

28 and brought his head upon a dish, and gave it to the damsel, and the damsel gave it to her mother.

27 Il envoya sur-le-champ un garde, avec ordre d'apporter la tête de Jean Baptiste. Le garde alla décapiter Jean dans la prison,

28 et apporta la tête sur un plat. Il la donna à la jeune fille, et la jeune fille la donna à sa mère.
