Matthew 11:16-19

Listen to Matthew 11:16-19

This generation

16 " To what will I compare this generation? It is like a child sitting in the marketplaces calling out to others,
17 ‘We played the flute for you and you didn't dance. We sang a funeral song and you didn't mourn.'
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.'
19 Yet the Human One came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look, a glutton and a drunk, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' But wisdom is proved to be right by her works."
