Mark 6:10-20 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

10. And he said to them: "Whenever you have entered into a house, stay there until you depart from that place.

11. And whoever will neither receive you, nor listen to you, as you go away from there, shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them."

12. And going out, they were preaching, so that people would repent.

13. And they cast out many demons, and they anointed many of the sick with oil and healed them.

14. And king Herod heard of it, (for his name had become well-known) and he said: "John the Baptist has risen again from the dead, and because of this, miracles are at work in him."

15. But others were saying, "Because it is Elijah." Still others were saying, "Because he is a prophet, like one of the prophets."

16. When Herod had heard it, he said, "John whom I beheaded, the same has risen again from the dead."

17. For Herod himself had sent to capture John, and had chained him in prison, because of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip; for he had married her.

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

19. Now Herodias was devising treachery against him; and she wanted to kill him, but she was unable.

20. For Herod was apprehensive of John, knowing him to be a just and holy man, and so he guarded him. And he heard that he was accomplishing many things, and so he listened to him willingly.
