Woe on Unrepentant Towns(A)

20 Then Jesus began to denounce the towns in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent. 21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida!(B) For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon,(C) they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.(D) 22 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.(E) 23 And you, Capernaum,(F) will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades.[a](G) For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day. 24 But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.”(H)

The Unrepenting Cities

20 Then 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. 22 Nevertheless I say to you, (G)it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on (H)the day of judgment than for you. 23 And 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. 24 Nevertheless 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.”
