Luke 7:24-33

24AndG1161 when the messengersG32 of JohnG2491 had departedG565, he beganG756 to speakG3004 toG4314 the peopleG3793 concerningG4012 JohnG2491, WhatG5101 went ye outG1831 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048 to seeG2300? A reedG2563 shakenG4531 withG5259 the windG417? 25ButG235 whatG5101 went ye outG1831 to seeG1492? A manG444 clothedG294 inG1722 softG3120 raimentG2440? BeholdG2400, they who areG1722 gorgeouslyG1741 apparelledG2441, andG2532 liveG5225 delicatelyG5172, areG1526 inG1722 kings’ courtsG933. 26ButG235 whatG5101 went ye outG1831 to seeG1492? A prophetG4396? YeaG3483, I sayG3004 to youG5213, andG2532 much moreG4055 than a prophetG4396. 27ThisG3778 isG2076 he, concerningG4012 whomG3739 it is writtenG1125, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whoG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675. 28ForG1063 I sayG3004 to youG5213, AmongG1722 those that are bornG1084 of womenG1135 there isG2076 notG3762 a greaterG3187 prophetG4396 thanG3187 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910: butG1161 he that is leastG3398 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG2076 greater thanG3187 heG846. 29AndG2532 allG3956 the peopleG2992 that heardG191 him, andG2532 the tax collectorsG5057, justifiedG1344 GodG2316, being baptizedG907 with the baptismG908 of JohnG2491. 30ButG1161 the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 lawyersG3544 rejectedG114 the counselG1012 of GodG2316 againstG1519 themselvesG1438, beingG907 notG3361 baptizedG907 byG5259 himG846.12 31AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, To whatG5101 thenG3767 shall I likenG3666 the menG444 of thisG5026 generationG1074? andG2532 to whatG5101 are theyG1526 likeG3664? 32They areG1526 likeG3664 childrenG3813 sittingG2521 inG1722 the marketplaceG58, andG2532 callingG4377 one to anotherG240, andG2532 sayingG3004, We have pipedG832 to youG5213, andG2532 ye haveG3738 notG3756 dancedG3738; we have mournedG2354 to youG5213, andG2532 ye haveG2799 notG3756 weptG2799. 33ForG1063 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910 cameG2064 neitherG3383 eatingG2068 breadG740 norG3383 drinkingG4095 wineG3631; andG2532 ye sayG3004, He hathG2192 a demonG1140.
