Matthew 14:3-5

Williams(i) 3 For Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him out of the way by putting him in prison, just to please Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, 4 for John had said to him, "It is not right for you to have her as wife." 5 Although he wanted to have him killed, he was afraid of the people, for they regarded him as a prophet.
