Matthew 11:20-30

New American Standard Bible

The Unrepenting Cities

²⁰Then He began to reprimand the cities in which most of His ^[a]^(A)miracles were done, because they did not repent. ²¹“^(B)Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, ^(C)Bethsaida! For if the ^[b]miracles that occurred in you had occurred in ^(D)Tyre and ^(E)Sidon, they would have repented long ago in ^[c]^(F)sackcloth and ashes. ²²Nevertheless I say to you, ^(G)it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on ^(H)the day of judgment than for you. ²³And you, ^(I)Capernaum, will not be exalted to heaven, will you? You will be ^(J)brought down to ^(K)Hades! For if the ^[d]miracles that occurred in you had occurred in ^(L)Sodom, it would have remained to this day. ²⁴Nevertheless I say to you that ^(M)it will be more tolerable for the land of ^(N)Sodom on the day of judgment, than for you.”

Come to Me

²⁵^[e]^(O)At that time Jesus said, “I praise You, ^(P)Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that ^(Q)You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to infants. ²⁶Yes, ^(R)Father, for this way was well pleasing in Your sight. ²⁷^(S)All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father ^(T)except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son determines to reveal Him.

²⁸“^(U)Come to Me, all ^[f]who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. ²⁹Take My yoke upon you and ^(V)learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and ^(W)you will find ^[g]rest for your souls. ³⁰For ^(X)My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light.”

²⁰My son, ^(A)pay attention to my words;
^(B)Incline your ear to my sayings.
²¹^(C)They are not to escape from your sight;
^(D)Keep them in the midst of your heart.
²²For they are ^(E)life to those who find them,
And ^(F)healing to all ^[a]their body.

For ^(G)from it flow the springs of life.

And ^(I)keep devious ^[b]speech far from you.
²⁵Let your eyes look directly ahead
And let your ^[c]gaze be fixed straight in front of you.
²⁶^(J)^[d]Watch the path of your feet,
And all your ^(K)ways will be established.
²⁷^(L)Do not turn to the right or to the left;
^(M)Turn your foot from evil.
