Matthew 11:19 Context
17And saying, we haue piped vnto you, and ye haue not danced: wee haue mourned vnto you, and ye haue not lamented. 18For Iohn came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, he hath a deuill. 19The sonne of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a wine bibber, a friend of publicanes and sinners: but wisedom is iustified of her children. 20¶ Then began he to vpbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not. 21Woe vnto thee Chorazin, woe vnto thee Bethsaida: for if the mightie workes which were done in you, had bene done in Tyre and Sidon, they would haue repented long agoe in sackcloth and ashes.
