Matthew 11:23-25

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²³ And you, Capernaum, are you to be lifted up to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades [the region of the dead]! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have continued until today.

²⁴ But I tell you, it shall be more endurable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.

²⁵ At that time Jesus began to say, I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth [and ^[a]I acknowledge openly and joyfully to Your honor], that You have hidden these things from the wise and clever and learned, and revealed them to babies [to the ^[b]childish, untaught, and unskilled].
