Matthew 11:17-19
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
17 We piped to you [playing wedding], and you did not dance; we wailed dirges [playing funeral], and you did not mourn and beat your breasts and weep aloud.
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking [with others], and they say, He has a demon!
19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking [with others], and they say, Behold, a glutton and a wine drinker, a friend of tax collectors and [[a]especially wicked] sinners! Yet wisdom is justified and vindicated by what she does (her deeds) and by [b]her children.
