For this is he of whom it is written; Behold, I send my messenger before your face, to prepare your way before you. I tell you truly, there has not arisen among those born of woman a greater than John the Baptist; but the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. And from the days of John the Baptist till now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the prophets and the law prophesied till John. And if you will receive it, this is Elijah, who was to come. He that has ears, let him hear. To what shall I liken this generation? It is like little children sitting in the markets, who call to their companions, and say, We have played on pipes for you, and you have not danced; we have mourned, and you have not lamented.

But wisdom is justified by her children.
