Matthew 11:15-17
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
15 He who has ears to hear, let him be listening and let him consider and [a]perceive and comprehend by hearing.
16 But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like little children sitting in the marketplaces who call to their playmates,
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.
