ylt @Matthew:11:2 @And John having heard in the prison the works of the Christ , having sent two of his disciples , ylt @Matthew:11:3 @said to him , 'Art thou He who is coming , or for another do we look ?' ylt @Matthew:11:4 @And Jesus answering said to them , 'Having gone , declare to John the things that ye hear and see , ylt @Matthew:11:5 @blind receive sight , and lame walk , lepers are cleansed , and deaf hear , dead are raised , and poor have good news proclaimed , ylt @Matthew:11:6 @and happy is he who may not be stumbled in me .' ylt @Matthew:11:7 @And as they are going , Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John , 'What went ye out to the wilderness to view ? -- a reed shaken by the wind ? ylt @Matthew:11:8 @'But what went ye out to see ? -- a man clothed in soft garments ? lo , those wearing the soft things are in the kings ' houses . ylt @Matthew:11:9 @'But what went ye out to see ? -- a prophet ? yes , I say to you , and more than a prophet , ylt @Matthew:11:10 @for this is he of whom it hath been written , Lo , I do send My messenger before thy face , who shall prepare thy way before thee . ylt @Matthew:11:11 @Verily I say to you , there hath not risen , among those born of women , a greater than John the Baptist , but he who is least in the reign of the heavens is greater than he . ylt @Matthew:11:12 @'And , from the days of John the Baptist till now , the reign of the heavens doth suffer violence , and violent men do take it by force , ylt @Matthew:11:13 @for all the prophets and the law till John did prophesy , ylt @Matthew:11:14 @and if ye are willing to receive [it ], he is Elijah who was about to come ; ylt @Matthew:11:15 @he who is having ears to hear -- let him hear . ylt @Matthew:11:16 @'And to what shall I liken this generation ? it is like little children in market-places , sitting and calling to their comrades , ylt @Matthew:11:17 @and saying , We piped unto you , and ye did not dance , we lamented to you , and ye did not smite the breast . ylt @Matthew:11:18 @'For John came neither eating nor drinking , and they say , He hath a demon ; ylt @Matthew:11:19 @the Son of Man came eating and drinking , and they say , Lo , a man , a glutton , and a wine-drinker , a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners , and wisdom was justified of her children .' ylt @Matthew:11:20 @Then began he to reproach the cities in which were done most of his mighty works , because they did not reform . ylt @Matthew:11:21 @'Wo to thee , Chorazin ! wo to thee , Bethsaida ! because , if in Tyre and Sidon had been done the mighty works that were done in you , long ago in sackcloth and ashes they had reformed ; ylt @Matthew:11:22 @but I say to you , to Tyre and Sidon it shall be more tolerable in a day of judgment than for you . ylt @Matthew:11:23 @'And thou , Capernaum , which unto the heaven wast exalted , unto hades shalt be brought down , because if in Sodom had been done the mighty works that were done in thee , it had remained unto this day ; ylt @Matthew:11:24 @but I say to you , to the land of Sodom it shall be more tolerable in a day of judgment than to thee .' ylt @Matthew:11:25 @At that time Jesus answering said , 'I do confess to Thee , Father , Lord of the heavens and of the earth , that thou didst hide these things from wise and understanding ones , and didst reveal them to babes . ylt @Matthew:11:26 @Yes , Father , because so it was good pleasure before Thee . ylt @Matthew:11:27 @'All things were delivered to me by my Father , and none doth know the Son , except the Father , nor doth any know the Father , except the Son , and he to whom the Son may wish to reveal [Him ]. ylt @Matthew:11:28 @'Come unto me , all ye labouring and burdened ones , and I will give you rest , ylt @Matthew:11:29 @take up my yoke upon you , and learn from me , because I am meek and humble in heart , and ye shall find rest to your souls , ylt @Matthew:11:30 @for my yoke [is ] easy , and my burden is light .'
