And king Herod had news of him, because his name was on the lips of all; and he said, John the Baptist has come back from the dead, and for this reason these powers are working in him.

Και ηκουσεν ο βασιλευς Ηρωδης· διοτι φανερον εγεινε το ονομα αυτου· και ελεγεν οτι Ιωαννης ο Βαπτιστης ανεστη εκ νεκρων, και δια τουτο ενεργουσιν αι δυναμεις εν αυτω.
