17 For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philips wife; for he had married her.

18 For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brothers wife.

17 Porquanto o mesmo Herodes mandara prender a João, e encerrá-lo manietado 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.
