23 And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.
And he swore to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom."
24 And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.
So she went out, and said to her mother, "What should I ask?" And she said, "The head of John, the one immersing."
25 And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.
And she came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, "I want you to give me right now the head of John the Immerser on a platter."

31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

32 And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.
So they went away in the boat to an isolated place by themselves.
33 And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.
But they saw them going, and many recognized him and ran there on foot from all the cities and they arrived before them.

He saw them distressed in rowing, for the wind was against them. In the watch between three and six in the morning he came to them, walking on the lake, and he would have passed by them,
49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:
but they, when they saw him walking on the lake, supposed that it was a ghost, and began to scream;
50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
for they all saw him, and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them, and said to them, "Cheer up. It is I. Do not be afraid."
51 And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.

Wherever he entered, into villages, or into cities, or into the country, they placed the sick in the marketplaces, and begged him that they might touch just the fringe of his garment; and everyone who touched him were made well.
