Luke 7:31-35

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³¹ And the Lord said: Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

³² They are like to children sitting in the marketplace, and speaking one to another, and saying: We have piped to you, and you have not danced: we have mourned, and you have not wept.

³³ For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say: He hath a devil.

³⁴ The Son of man is come eating and drinking: and you say: Behold a man that is a glutton and a drinker of wine, a friend of publicans and sinners.

³⁵ And wisdom is justified by all her children.
