17 Herode yari yaratumye abantu bafata Yohana baramuboha bamushyira muri gereza, bitewe na Herodiya wari umugore w’umuvandimwe we Filipo. Herode yari yaramutwaye amugira umugore we.+ 18 Yohana yahoraga abwira Herode ati: “Amategeko ntiyemera ko utwara umugore w’umuvandimwe wawe.”+

19 Ariko Yohana yacyashye Herode wari umutegetsi wayoboraga intara, amuhora Herodiya umugore w’umuvandimwe we, hamwe n’ibindi bintu bibi byose Herode yari yarakoze. 20 Yari yarakoze ibintu bibi byinshi, agerekaho no gufata Yohana amufungira muri gereza.+
