Mark 6:29 · BSB
The verses around it, from Mark 6.
25 At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”
26 The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.
27 So without delay, the king commanded that John’s head be brought in. He sent an executioner, who went and beheaded him in the prison.
28 The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.
29 When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.
30 Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.
31 And He said to them, “Come with Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.
32 So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.
33 But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.
