Luke:7:30-35

*
But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the will of God for themselves ,
not having been baptized by him .
*
And the Lord said , "
To what then shall I liken the men of this generation ,
and what are they like ?
*
They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another ,
saying : "
We played the flute for you ,
And you did not dance ;
We mourned to you ,
And you did not weep .'
*
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine ,
and you say , "
He has a demon .'
*
The Son of Man has come eating and drinking ,
and you say , "
Look ,
a glutton and a winebibber ,
a friend of tax collectors and sinners !'
*
But wisdom is justified by all her children ."
