Matthew 11:2-19
2NowG1161 when JohnG2491 heardG191 in the prisonG1201 the worksG2041 of the ChristG5547, he sentG3992 by his disciplesG3101 3and saidG3004 unto him, Art thou he that cometh, or lookG4328 we for another? 4And JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto them, GoG4198 and tellG3004 JohnG2491 the thingsG3739 which ye hearG191 and seeG991: 5the blindG5185 receiveG308 their sightG308, and the lameG5560 walkG4043, the lepersG3015 are cleansedG2511, and the deafG2974 hearG191, and the deadG3498 are raisedG1453 up, and the poorG4434 have good tidings preached to them. 6And blessed isG1510 he, whosoever shall find no occasion of stumblingG4624 in me.
7And as these wentG1831 their way, JesusG2424 beganG757 to sayG3004 unto the multitudesG3793 concerningG4012 JohnG2491, What wentG1831 ye out into the wildernessG2048 to behold? a reedG2563 shakenG4531 with the windG417? 8But what wentG1831 ye out to seeG3708? a manG444 clothed in soft raiment? BeholdG2400, they that wearG5409 soft raiment areG1510 in kings’G935 houses. 9But wherefore wentG1831 ye out? to seeG3708 a prophetG4396? Yea, I sayG3004 unto you, and much more than a prophetG4396. 10This isG1510 he, of whom it isG1510 writtenG1125,
11Verily I sayG3004 unto you, Among them that areG1510 born of womenG1135 there hath not arisenG1453 a greaterG3173 than JohnG2491 the BaptistG910: yet he that isG1510 but littleG3398 in the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG1510 greaterG3173 than he. 12And from the daysG2250 of JohnG2491 the BaptistG910 until nowG1161 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 suffereth violence, and men of violence take it by force. 13For all the prophetsG4396 and the lawG3551 prophesiedG4395 until JohnG2491. 14And if ye areG1510 willingG2309 to receiveG1209 it, this isG1510 ElijahG2243, that isG1510 to comeG2064. 15He that hath earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191. 16But whereunto shall I liken this generationG1074? It isG1510 like unto childrenG3813 sittingG2521 in the marketplaces, who callG4377 unto their fellows 17and sayG3004, We piped unto you, and ye did not danceG3738; we wailed, and ye did not mournG2875. 18For JohnG2491 cameG2064 neither eatingG2068 nor drinkingG4095, and they sayG3004, He hath a demonG1140. 19The SonG5207 of manG444 cameG2064 eatingG2068 and drinkingG4095, and they sayG3004, BeholdG2400, a gluttonous manG444 and a winebibber, a friendG5384 of publicans and sinnersG268! And wisdomG4678 is justifiedG1344 by her worksG2041.
