Goodspeed(i)
28 "I tell you, among men born of women there is none greater than John; and yet those who are of little importance in the Kingdom of God are greater than he.
29 And all the people, even the tax-collectors, when they heard him, acknowledged the justice of God's demands, by accepting baptism from John,
30 but the Pharisees and experts in the Law thwarted God's purpose for themselves, by refusing to be baptized by him.
31 So what is there to which I can compare the men of this age? What are they like?
32 They are like children sitting about in the bazaar and calling out to one another, " 'We have played the flute for you, and you would not dance! We have wailed and you would not weep!'
33 "For when John the Baptist came, he did not eat any bread or drink any wine, and you said, 'He has a demon!'
34 Now that the Son of Man has come, he does eat and drink, and you say, 'Look at him! A glutton and a drinker, the companion of tax-collectors and irreligious people!'
35 So wisdom is vindicated by all who are really wise."
