Matthew 11:26 Context
24But I say vnto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, in þe day of iudgment, then for thee. 25¶ At that time Iesus answered, and said, I thanke thee, O Father, Lord of heauen and earth, because thou hast hid these things frō the wise & prudent, & hast reueiled them vnto babes. 26Euen so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. 27All things are deliuered vnto me of my father: and no man knoweth the sonne but the father: neither knoweth any man the father, saue the sonne, and hee to whomsoeuer the sonne will reueile him. 28¶ Come vnto me all yee that labour, and are heauy laden, and I will giue you rest.
