Luke 7:31-35 (Gospel)
- 31
- And the Lord said, “To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and what are they like?
- 32
- They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we mourned to you, and you did not weep.’
- 33
- For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
- 34
- The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
- 35
- But wisdom is justified by all her children.”
