Korean⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ 이 세대를 무엇으로 비유할꼬 비유컨대 아이들이 장터에 앉아 제 동무를 불러 ¹⁷ 가로되 우리가 너희를 향하여 피리를 불어도 너희가 춤추지 않고 우리가 애곡하여도 너희가 가슴을 치지 아니하였다 함과 같도다 ¹⁸ 요한이 와서 먹지도 않고 마시지도 아니하매 저희가 말하기를 귀신이 들렸다 하더니 ¹⁹ 인자는 와서 먹고 마시매 말하기를 보라 먹기를 탐하고 포도주를 즐기는 사람이요 세리와 죄인의 친구로다 하니 지혜는 그 행한 일로 인하여 옳다 함을 얻느니라

Latvian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Bet kam lai es pielīdzinu šo cilti? Viņa līdzīga bērniem, kas tirgus laukumā sēd un, kliegdami sev līdzīgajiem, ¹⁷ Saka: Mēs jums spēlējām, bet jūs nedejojāt; mēs jums dziedājām raudu dziesmas, bet jūs neraudājāt. ¹⁸ Jo atnāca Jānis: ne ēda, ne dzēra, bet tie saka, ka viņā ļaunais gars. ¹⁹ Atnāca Cilvēka Dēls; Viņš ēd un dzer, un tie saka: lūk, cilvēks, kas rijējs un dzērājs, muitnieku un grēcinieku draugs! Un to bērni attaisnoja viņu gudrību.

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ “Su kuo galėčiau palyginti šią kartą? Ji panaši į vaikus, kurie sėdi prekyvietėje ir šaukia savo draugams: ¹⁷ ‘Mes jums grojome, o jūs nešokote. Mes giedojome raudas, o jūs neraudojote’. ¹⁸ Atėjo Jonas, nevalgus ir negeriantis, tai jie sako: ‘Jis demono apsėstas’. ¹⁹ Atėjo Žmogaus Sūnus, valgantis ir geriantis, tai jie sako: ‘Štai rijūnas ir vyno gėrėjas, muitininkų ir nusidėjėlių bičiulis’. Bet išmintį pateisina jos vaikai”.

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Ale komuż przypodobam ten naród? podobny jest dziatkom, które siedzą na rynkach, i wołają na towarzysze swoje, ¹⁷ I mówią: Grałyśmy wam na piszczałce, a nie tańcowałyście; śpiewałyśmy pieśni żałobne, a nie płakałyście. ¹⁸ Albowiem przyszedł Jan ani jedząc ani pijąc, a mówią: Iż dyjabelstwo ma. ¹⁹ Przyszedł Syn człowieczy jedząc i pijąc, a mówią: Oto człowiek obżerca i pijanica wina, przyjaciel celników i grzeszników; i usprawiedliwiona jest mądrość od synów swoich.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Mas, a quem compararei esta geração? É semelhante aos meninos que, sentados nas praças, clamam aos seus companheiros: ¹⁷ Tocamo-vos flauta, e não dançastes; cantamos lamentações, e não pranteastes. ¹⁸ Porquanto veio João, não comendo nem bebendo, e dizem: Tem demónio. ¹⁹ Veio o Filho do homem, comendo e bebendo, e dizem: Eis aí um comilão e bebedor de vinho, amigo de publicanos e pecadores. Entretanto a sabedoria é justificada pelas suas obras.

T'ad goll-rish cloan ta nyn soie ayns ny margaghyn, as geamagh da ny sheshaghyn oc. ¹⁷ As gra, Ta shin er n'yannoo bingys diu, as cha vel shiu er ghaunsin: ta shin er hroggal bardoon diu, as cha vel shiu er ghobberan. ¹⁸ Son cha daink Ean gee ny giu, as t'ad gra, Ta drogh-spyrryd ayn. ¹⁹ Haink Mac yn dooinney gee as giu, as t'ad gra, Cur-my-ner dooinney jollyssagh, as iuder feeyney, carrey dy publicanee as dy pheccee: agh ta creenaght er ny heyrey liorish e cloan hene.

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Men hvem skal jeg ligne denne slekt med? Den ligner små barn som sitter på torvene og roper til sine lekebrødre: ¹⁷ Vi blåste på fløite for eder, og I vilde ikke danse; vi sang sørgesanger, og I vilde ikke gråte. ¹⁸ For Johannes kom; han hverken åt eller drakk, og de sier: Han er besatt. ¹⁹ Menneskesønnen kom; han eter og drikker, og de sier: Se, for en storeter og vindrikker, tolderes og synderes venn! Men visdommen er rettferdiggjort av sine barn.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Cu cine voi asemăna neamul acesta de oameni? Seamănă cu nişte copilaşi, cari şed în pieţe, şi strigă la tovarăşii lor: ¹⁷ ,V'am cîntat din fluier, şi n'aţi jucat; v'am cîntat de jale, şi nu v'aţi tînguit.` ¹⁸ Căci a venit Ioan, nici mîncînd, nici bînd, şi ei zic:,Are drac!` ¹⁹ A venit Fiul omului mîncînd şi bînd, şi ei zic:,Iată un om mîncăcios şi băutor de vin, un prieten al vameşilor şi al păcătoşilor!` Totuş, Înţelepciunea a fost îndreptăţită din lucrările ei.``

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ До кого ж цей рід прирівняю? До хлоп'ят він подібний, що на ринку сидять та вигукують іншим, ¹⁷ і кажуть: Ми вам грали, а ви не танцювали, ми співали вам жалібно, та не плакали ви... ¹⁸ Бо прийшов був Іван, що не їв і не пив, вони ж кажуть: Він демона має. ¹⁹ Прийшов же Син Людський, що їсть і п'є, вони ж кажуть: Чоловік ось, ласун і п'яниця, Він приятель митників і грішників. І виправдалася мудрість своїми ділами.

UkrainianNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Кому ж я уподоблю рід сей? Подібен він тим дітям, що сидять на торгу, та гукають до своїх товаришів, ¹⁷ та кажуть: Ми вам сурмили, а ви не скакали; ми вам жалібно приговорювали, а ви не плакали. ¹⁸ Бо прийшов Йоан, не їсть і не пє, а вони кажуть: Диявола має. ¹⁹ Прийшов Син чоловічий, їсть і пє, а вони кажуть: Ось чоловік прожора та пяниця, друг митникам та грішникам. І оправдилась премудрість од дїтей своїх.
