Mat 11:2 Now when John had heard in the prison
the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,
Mat 11:3 And said unto him, Art thou he that
should come, or do we look for another?
Mat 11:4 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go
and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:
Mat 11:5 The blind receive their sight, and the
lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised
up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.
Mat 11:6 And blessed is
he, whosoever
shall not be offended in me.
Mat 11:7 And as they departed, Jesus began to say
unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness
to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
Mat 11:8 But what went ye out for to see? A man
clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft
clothing are
in kings' houses.
Mat 11:9 But what went ye out for to see? A
prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.
Mat 11:10 For this is
he, of whom it
is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall
prepare thy way before thee.
Mat 11:11 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.
Mat 11:12 And from the days of John the Baptist
until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take
it by force.
Mat 11:13 For all the prophets and the law
prophesied until John.
Mat 11:14 And if ye will receive
it, this is
Elias, which was for to come.
Mat 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him
hear.
Mat 11:16 But whereunto shall I liken this
generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling
unto their fellows,
Mat 11:17 And saying, We have piped unto you, and
ye have not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.
Mat 11:18 For John came neither eating nor
drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.
Mat 11:19 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.

Luk 7:18 And the disciples of John shewed him of
all these things.
Luk 7:19 And John calling
unto him two
of his disciples sent them
to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
Luk 7:20 When the men were come unto him, they
said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should
come? or look we for another?
Luk 7:21 And in that same hour he cured many of
their
infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many
that were
blind he gave sight.
Luk 7:22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go
your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the
blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead
are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
Luk 7:23 And blessed is
he, whosoever
shall not be offended in me.
Luk 7:24 And when the messengers of John were
departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye
out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
Luk 7:25 But what went ye out for to see? A man
clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and
live delicately, are in kings' courts.
Luk 7:26 But what went ye out for to see? A
prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
Luk 7:27 This is
he, of whom it
is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall
prepare thy way before thee.
Luk 7:28 For I say unto you, Among those that are
born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Luk 7:29 And all the people that heard
him, and the
publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
Luk 7:30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected
the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
Luk 7:31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall
I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
Luk 7:32 They are like unto children sitting in
the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped
unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not
wept.
Luk 7:33 For John the Baptist came neither eating
bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
Luk 7:34 The Son of man is come eating and
drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend
of publicans and sinners!
Luk 7:35 But wisdom is justified of all her
children.
