nkjv Matthew:11:1-19
nkjv@Matthew:11:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities.
nkjv@Matthew:11:2 @ And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
nkjv@Matthew:11:3 @ and said to Him, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?"
nkjv@Matthew:11:4 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
nkjv@Matthew:11:5 @ The blind see 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.
nkjv@Matthew:11:6 @ And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me."
nkjv@Matthew:11:7 @ As they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
nkjv@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed, those who wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.
nkjv@Matthew:11:9 @ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
nkjv@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is he of whom it is written: "Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.'
nkjv@Matthew:11:11 @ "Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
nkjv@Matthew:11:12 @ And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
nkjv@Matthew:11:13 @ For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
nkjv@Matthew:11:14 @ And if you are willing to receive it, he is Elijah who is to come.
nkjv@Matthew:11:15 @ He who has ears to hear, let him hear!
nkjv@Matthew:11:16 @ "But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their companions,
nkjv@Matthew:11:17 @ and saying: "We played the flute for you, And you did not dance; We mourned to you, And you did not lament.'
nkjv@Matthew:11:18 @ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, "He has a demon.'
nkjv@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, "Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' But wisdom is justified by her children."
