40:011:009 But what went ye out for to see?  A prophet? yea, I say unto
           you, and more than a prophet.

40:011:010 For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my
           messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before
           thee.

40:011:011 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there
           hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: 
           notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is
           greater than he.

40:011:012 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of
           heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

40:011:013 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

40:011:014 And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to
           come.

40:011:015 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

40:011:016 But whereunto shall I liken this generation?  It is like unto
           children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their
           fellows,

40:011:017 And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we
           have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.

40:011:018 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He
           hath a devil.

40:011:019 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold
           a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and
           sinners.  But wisdom is justified of her children.

40:011:020 Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty
           works were done, because they repented not: 

40:011:021 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the
           mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre
           and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and
           ashes.

40:011:022 But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and
           Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.

40:011:023 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be
           brought down to hell:  for if the mighty works, which have been
           done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained
           until this day.

40:011:024 But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the
           land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

40:011:025 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father,
           Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things
           from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.

40:011:026 Even so, Father:  for so it seemed good in thy sight.

40:011:027 All things are delivered unto me of my Father:  and no man
           knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the
           Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal
           him.
