Matthew 11:16-24 - An Unresponsive Generation
16 But to whom shall I liken this generation? It is like little children sitting in the market-place, and calling to their comrades, and saying,
17 We piped unto you, and you did not dance; we mourned unto you, and you did not lament.
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He has a demon. 19 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a gluttonous and wine-drinking man, a friend of publicans and sinners. Wisdom is truly justified by her children.
20 Then He began to upbraid the cities in which the most mighty works of His were performed, because they did not repent. 21 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! Woe unto thee, Bethsaida! because if the mighty works which were wrought in you had been in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 Moreover I say unto you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you. 23 And thou, Capernaum, art thou not exalted up to heaven? thou shall be cast down to Hades: because if the mighty works which were wrought in thee had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 Moreover I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
