Matthew 11:20-26

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein were done the most of his miracles, for that they had not done penance.

²¹ Woe to thee, Corozain, woe to thee, Bethsaida: for if in Tyre and Sidon had been wrought the miracles that have been wrought in you, they had long ago done penance in sackcloth and ashes.

²² But I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment, than for you.

²³ And thou Capharnaum, shalt thou be exalted up to heaven? thou shalt go down even unto hell. For if in Sodom had been wrought the miracles that have been wrought in thee, perhaps it had remained unto this day.

²⁴ But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

²⁵ At that time Jesus answered and said: I confess to thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to the little ones.

²⁶ Yea, Father; for so hath it seemed good in thy sight.
