24 For G1063 John G2491 was G2258 not yet G3768 cast G906 into G1519 prison. G5438
But G1161 Herod G2264 the tetrarch, G5076 being reproved G1651 by G5259 him G846 for G4012 Herodias G2266 his G846 brother G80 Philip's G5376 wife, G1135 and G2532 for G4012 all G3956 the evils G4190 which G3739 Herod G2264 had done, G4160 Added G4369 yet G2532 this G5124 above G1909 all, G3956 that G2532 he shut up G2623 John G2491 in G1722 prison. G5438

G5108 And G2532 he desired G2212 to see G1492 him. G846
