17 For Herod had sent and seized John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Hero'di-as, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

18 For John said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."

17 Porquanto o mesmo Herodes mandara prender a João, e encerrá-lo amarrado no cárcere, por causa de Herodias, mulher de Filipe, seu irmão, porquanto tinha casado com ela.

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