Mark 6:18

(BBE)
John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!” (Holman Christian Standard Bible)
For John had said unto Herod, “It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother’s wife.” (21st Century King James Version)
but John told Herod, “It’s against the law for you to marry your brother’s wife!” (Common English Bible)
John had been telling Herod, “It’s not right for you to be married to your brother’s wife.” (GOD’S WORD Translation)
17-18 Herod had earlier married Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip. But John had told him, “It isn’t right for you to take your brother’s wife!” So, in order to please Herodias, Herod arrested John and put him in prison. (Contemporary English Version)
John had been telling Herod, “It is against God’s law for you to marry your brother’s wife.” (New Living Translation)
For John had told Herod, It is not lawful and you have no right to have your brother’s wife. (Amplified Bible)
17-20 Herod was the one who had ordered the arrest of John, put him in chains, and sent him to prison at the nagging of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife. For John had provoked Herod by naming his relationship with Herodias “adultery.” Herodias, smoldering with hate, wanted to kill him, but didn’t dare because Herod was in awe of John. Convinced that he was a holy man, he gave him special treatment. Whenever he listened to him he was miserable with guilt—and yet he couldn’t stay away. Something in John kept pulling him back. (The Message)
John had been saying to Herod, “It is against the Law for you to have your brother’s wife.” (New International Reader's Version)
(Wycliffe New Testament)
