Da es aber Herodes hörte, sprach er: Es ist Johannes, den ich enthauptet habe; der ist von den Toten auferstanden.
Y oyéndolo Herodes, dijo: Este es Juan el que yo degollé: Él ha resucitado de los muertos.
Pero Herodes, al oírlo, decía: «Juan, a quien yo decapité, ha resucitado».
Mais Hérode, en apprenant cela, disait: Ce Jean que j'ai fait décapiter, c'est lui qui est ressuscité.
Ma Erode, udite quelle cose, disse: Egli è quel Giovanni, che io ho decapitato; esso è risuscitato da’ morti.
Herodes, porém, ouvindo isto, disse: Este é João, que mandei degolar; ressuscitou dentre os mortos.
