Jesus Praises John the Baptist

7As they went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to look at? A reed shaken by the wind?G1161G5130G4198G2424G756G3004G3793G4012G2491G5101G1831G1519G2048G2300G2563G4531G5259G417 8What then did you go out to see? Someone dressed in soft robes? Look, those who wear soft robes are in royal palaces.G235G5101G1831G1492G444G294G1722G3120G2440G2400G5409G3120G1526G1722G935G3624 9What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.G235G5101G1831G1492G4396G3483G3004G5213G2532G4055G4396 10This is the one about whom it is written, 'See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.'G1063G3778G2076G4012G3739G1125G2400G1473G649G3450G32G4253G4675G4383G3739G2680G4675G3598G1715G4675 11Truly I tell you, among those born of women no one has arisen greater than John the Baptist; yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.G281G3004G5213G1722G1084G1135G1453G3756G1453G3187G2491G910G1161G3398G1722G932G3772G2076G3187G846 12From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force.G1161G575G2250G2491G910G2193G737G932G3772G971G2532G973G726G846G726 13For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John came;G1063G3956G4396G2532G3551G4395G2193G2491 14and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come.G2532G1487G2309G1209G846G2076G2243G3588G3195G2064 15Let anyone with ears listen!G2192G3775G191G191 16"But to what will I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to one another,G1161G5101G3666G5026G1074G2076G3664G3808G2521G1722G58G2532G4377G846G2083 17'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not mourn.'G2532G3004G832G5213G2532G3738G3756G3738G2354G5213G2532G2875G3756G2875 18For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon';G1063G2491G2064G3383G2068G3383G4095G2532G3004G2192G1140 19the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is vindicated by her deeds."G5207G444G2064G2068G2532G4095G2532G3004G2400G444G5314G2532G3630G5384G5057G2532G268G2532G4678G1344G575G846G5043

Woes to Unrepentant Cities

20Then he began to reproach the cities in which most of his deeds of power had been done, because they did not repent.G5119G756G3679G4172G1722G3739G4118G846G1411G1096G3754G3340G3756 21"Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the deeds of power done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.G3759G4671G5523G3759G4671G966G3754G1487G1411G3588G1096G1722G5213G1096G1722G5184G2532G4605G3340G302G3819G1722G4526G2532G4700 22But I tell you, on the day of judgment it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon than for you.G4133G3004G5213G2071G414G5184G2532G4605G1722G2250G2920G2228G5213 23And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades. For if the deeds of power done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.G2532G4771G2584G3588G5312G2193G3772G2601G2193G86G3754G1487G1411G3588G1096G1722G4671G1096G1722G4670G302G3306G3360G4594 24But I tell you that on the day of judgment it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom than for you."G4133G3004G5213G3754G2071G414G1093G4670G1722G2250G2920G2228G4671

Jesus Thanks His Father

25At that time Jesus said, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the intelligent and have revealed them to infants;G1722G1565G2540G2424G611G2036G1843G4671G3962G2962G3772G2532G1093G3754G613G5023G575G4680G2532G4908G2532G601G846G3516 26yes, Father, for such was your gracious will.G3483G3962G3754G3779G1096G2107G4675G1715 27All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.G3956G3860G3427G5259G3450G3962G2532G3762G1921G5207G1508G3962G3761G1921G5100G3962G1508G5207G2532G3739G1437G5207G1014G601 28"Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.G1205G4314G3165G3956G2872G2532G5412G2504G373G5209G373 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.G142G3450G2218G1909G5209G2532G3129G575G1700G3754G1510G4235G2532G5011G2588G2532G2147G372G5216G5590 30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."G1063G3450G2218G5543G2532G3450G5413G2076G1645
