Matthew 11:9-17

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,

BeholdG2400, I sendG649 my messengerG32 before thy faceG4383,Who shall prepareG2680 thy wayG3598 before thee.

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.
