Matthew:11:2-18
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now when John had heard (
5660 )
in the prison the works of Christ ,
he sent (
5660 )
two of his disciples ,
*
And said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Art (
5748 )
thou he that should come (
5740 ),
or do we look (
5719 )
for another ?
*
Jesus answered (
5679 )
and said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Go (
5679 )
and shew John again (
5657 )
those things which ye do hear (
5719 )
and see (
5719 ):
*
The blind receive their sight (
5719 ),
and the lame walk (
5719 ),
the lepers are cleansed (
5743 ),
and the deaf hear (
5719 ),
the dead are raised up (
5743 ),
and the poor have the gospel preached to them (
5743 ).
*
And blessed is (
5748 )
he ,
whosoever shall not be offended (
5686 )
in me .
*
And as they departed (
5740 ),
Jesus began (
5662 )
to say (
5721 )
unto the multitudes concerning John ,
What went ye (
5627 )
out into the wilderness to see (
5664 )?
A reed shaken (
5746 )
with the wind ?
*
But what went ye out (
5627 )
for to see (
5629 )?
A man clothed (
5772 )
in soft raiment ?
behold (
5628 ),
they that wear (
5723 )
soft clothing are (
5748 )
in kings houses .
*
But what went ye out (
5627 )
for to see (
5629 )?
A prophet ?
yea ,
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
and more than a prophet .
*
For this is (
5748 )
he ,
of whom it is written (
5769 ),
Behold (
5628 ),
I send (
5719 )
my messenger before thy face ,
which shall prepare (
5692 )
thy way before thee .
*
Verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Among them that are born of women there hath not risen (
5769 )
a greater than John the Baptist :
notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is (
5748 )
greater than he .
*
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence (
5743 ),
and the violent take it by force (
5719 ).
*
For all the prophets and the law prophesied (
5656 )
until John .
*
And if ye will (
5719 )
receive (
5664 )
it ,
this is (
5748 )
Elias ,
which was for (
5723 )
to come (
5738 ).
*
He that hath (
5723 )
ears to hear (
5721 ),
let him hear (
5720 ).
*
But whereunto shall I liken (
5692 )
this generation ?
It is (
5748 )
like unto children sitting (
5740 )
in the markets ,
and calling (
5723 )
unto their fellows ,
*
And saying (
5723 ),
We have piped (
5656 )
unto you ,
and ye have not danced (
5662 );
we have mourned (
5656 )
unto you ,
and ye have not lamented (
5668 ).
*
For John came (
5627 )
neither eating (
5723 )
nor drinking (
5723 ),
and they say (
5719 ),
He hath (
5719 )
a devil .
