But I tell you, Elijah has come, and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”

I tell you, Elijah has come. They have done to him everything they wanted to do. They did it just as it is written about him.”

But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him.”

But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they chose to abuse him, just as the Scriptures predicted.”

But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did whatever they pleased to him, just as it is written about him.”

But I say to you that Elijah has indeed come, and they did to him whatever they wanted, just as it is written of him.”

But I say to you that Elijah has also come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it is written of him.”

But I say unto you, that Elijah is come, and they have also done unto him whatsoever they would, even as it is written of him.

But I tell you that Elijah really has come, and they did whatever they pleased to him, just as it is written about him.”

But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him.”

And if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah, who is to come.

For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,because John had repeatedly told him,“ It is not lawful for you to have her.”Although Herod wanted to kill John, he feared the crowd because they accepted John as a prophet.But on Herod’s birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod,so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked.Instructed by her mother, she said,“ Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter.”Although it grieved the king, because of his oath and the dinner guests he commanded it to be given.So he sent and had John beheaded in the prison.His head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.

And I tell you that Elijah has already come. Yet they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted. In the same way, the Son of Man will suffer at their hands.”Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them about John the Baptist.

Now King Herod heard this, for Jesus’ name had become known. Some were saying,“ John the baptizer has been raised from the dead, and because of this, miraculous powers are at work in him.”Others said,“ He is Elijah.” Others said,“ He is a prophet, like one of the prophets from the past.”But when Herod heard this, he said,“ John, whom I beheaded, has been raised!”For Herod himself had sent men, arrested John, and bound him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, because Herod had married her.For John had repeatedly told Herod,“ It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”So Herodias nursed a grudge against him and wanted to kill him. But she could notbecause Herod stood in awe of John and protected him, since he knew that John was a righteous and holy man. When Herod heard him, he was thoroughly baffled, and yet he liked to listen to John.But a suitable day came, when Herod gave a banquet on his birthday for his court officials, military commanders, and leaders of Galilee.When his daughter Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his dinner guests. The king said to the girl,“ Ask me for whatever you want and I will give it to you.”He swore to her,“ Whatever you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom.”So she went out and said to her mother,“ What should I ask for?” Her mother said,“ The head of John the baptizer.”Immediately she hurried back to the king and made her request:“ I want the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”Although it grieved the king deeply, he did not want to reject her request because of his oath and his guests.So the king sent an executioner at once to bring John’s head, and he went and beheaded John in prison.He brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother.

And he will go as forerunner before the Lord in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers back to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared for him.”

Which of the prophets did your ancestors not persecute? They killed those who foretold long ago the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become!

But when John rebuked Herod the tetrarch because of Herodias, his brother’s wife, and because of all the evil deeds that he had done,Herod added this to them all: He locked up John in prison.
