Matthew 11:17-19

17and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a song of mourning, and you did not 1mourn.’ 18For John came neither 2eating nor 3drinking, and they say, ‘4He has a demon!’ 19The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a 5heavy drinker, 6a friend of tax collectors and 7sinners!’ And yet wisdom is vindicated by her deeds.”
