Matthew 11:16

But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the markets, and calling to their companions,

Generation of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

Verily I say to you, All these things shall come upon this generation.

Verily I say to you, This generation shall not pass away till all these things shall have taken place.

And he said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? Or, by what similitude shall we illustrate it?

To what, then, shall I compare the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

Then he said: To what is the kingdom of God like; and to what shall I liken it?

Generation of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

Verily I say to you, All these things shall come upon this generation.

Verily I say to you, This generation shall not pass away till all these things shall have taken place.

To what, then, shall I compare the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

And he said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? Or, by what similitude shall we illustrate it?
