# wanted to kill him, but she could not
# Herodias held on to anger against him
Herodias is the subject of this phrase and "she" is a metonym as she wants someone else to execute John. Alternate translation: "she wanted someone to kill him, but she could not have him killed" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
"Herodias continued to be angry towards John"
# and wanted to kill him
Herodias wanted someone to kill John. Alternate translation: "and she wanted someone to kill him"
# but she could not
What she could not do can be stated clearly. Alternate translation: "but she could not kill him" or "but she could not have him killed" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-ellipsis]])
