Matthew 11:19-21
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say ‘Behold— a man who is a glutton and drunkard[a], a friend of tax-collectors and sinners’. And wisdom was vindicated[b] by her works[c]”.
Woe To You Cities Who Have Seen My Works And Not Repented
20 Then He began to reproach[d] the cities in which most-of [e] His miracles took place, because they did not repent. 21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! Because if the miracles having taken place in you had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
