20. ಯಾಕಂದರೆ ಯೋಹಾನನು ನೀತಿವಂತನೂ ಪರಿಶುದ್ಧನೂ ಆದ ಮನುಷ್ಯನೆಂದು ಹೆರೋದನು ತಿಳಿದವನಾಗಿ ಅವನಿಗೆ ಭಯಪಟ್ಟು ಅವನನ್ನು ಕಾಪಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದನು; ಮತ್ತು ಅವನು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿ ಆನೇಕ ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಲ್ಲದೆ ಅವನು ಹೇಳುವದನ್ನು ಸಂತೋಷದಿಂದ ಕೇಳಿದನು.

ERVKN
20. ಆದರೆ ಆಕೆಗೆ ಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಗಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಹೆರೋದನು ಯೋಹಾನನನ್ನು ಕೊಲ್ಲಿಸಲು ಭಯಪಟ್ಟನು. ಯೋಹಾನನನ್ನು ಒಳ್ಳೆಯವನೆಂದೂ ಪವಿತ್ರನೆಂದೂ ಜನರೆಲ್ಲರು ನಂಬಿದ್ದಾರೆಂಬುದು ಹೆರೋದನಿಗೆ ತಿಳಿದಿತ್ತು. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಹೆರೋದನು ಯೋಹಾನನನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸಿದನು. ಹೆರೋದನು ಯೋಹಾನನ ಉಪದೇಶವನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದಾಗಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ಗಲಿಬಿಲಿಗೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಿದ್ದನು. ಆದರೂ ಅವನ ಉಪದೇಶವನ್ನು ಸಂತೋಷದಿಂದ ಕೇಳುತ್ತಿದ್ದನು.

IRVKN
20. ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ಹೆರೋದನು ಯೋಹಾನನನ್ನು ನೀತಿವಂತನೆಂದೂ ಪರಿಶುದ್ಧನೆಂದೂ ತಿಳಿದು ಭಯಪಟ್ಟು ಅವನಿಗೆ ಯಾವ ಅಪಾಯವೂ ಬಾರದಂತೆ ಕಾಪಾಡಿದ್ದನು. ಇದಲ್ಲದೆ ಯೋಹಾನನು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಸಂದೇಶವನ್ನು ಅವನು ಕೇಳಿದಾಗ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಅಸಮಾಧಾನ ಉಂಟಾದರೂ ಅವನ ಮಾತನ್ನು ಸಂತೋಷದಿಂದ ಕೇಳುತ್ತಿದ್ದನು.
