31“To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?
32They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another:
‘We played the flute for you,
and you did not dance;
we sang a dirge,
and you did not weep.’
33For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
34The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”
— Luke 7:31-35
