9 And the king was greatly saddened. But because of his oath, and because of those who sat at table with him, he ordered it to be given.
10 And he sent and beheaded John in prison.
11 And his head was brought on a platter, and it was given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
12 And his disciples approached and took the body, and they buried it. And arriving, they reported it to Jesus.
13 When Jesus had heard it, he withdrew from there by boat, to a deserted place by himself. And when the crowds had heard of it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
14 And going out, he saw a great multitude, and he took pity on them, and he cured their sick.
15 And when evening had arrived, his disciples approached him, saying: "This is a deserted place, and the hour has now passed. Dismiss the crowds, so that, by going into the towns, they may buy food for themselves."
