Matthew 11:17-19
Holman Christian Standard Bible
17 We played the flute for you,
but you didn’t dance;
we sang a lament,
but you didn’t mourn![a]
18 For John did not come eating or drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon!’(A) 19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look, a glutton and a drunkard,(B) a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’(C) Yet wisdom is vindicated[b] by her deeds.”[c]
