Luke 7:31-35
Chapter 7
31
Jesus said to the crowds:
“What comparison can I use for the people? What are they like?32
They are like children sitting in the marketplace about whom their companions complain:
‘We piped you a tune
and you wouldn’t dance;
we sang funeral songs
and you wouldn’t cry.’
33
Remember John: he didn’t eat bread or drink wine, and you said, ‘He has an evil spirit.’
34
Next, came the Son of Man, eating and drinking; and you say, ‘Look, a glutton for food and wine, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’
35
But the children of Wisdom always recognize her work.”
