  Matthew   chapter 11

   1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of
  commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence
  to teach and to preach in their cities.
   2 Now when John had heard in the prison the works of
  Christ, he sent two of his disciples,
   3 And said unto him, Art thou he that should come,
  or do we look for another?
   4 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew
  John again those things which ye do hear and see:
   5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk,
  the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead
  are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached
  to them.
   6 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended
  in me.
   7 And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the
  multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the
  wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
   8 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in
  soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing
  are in kings' houses.
   9 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I
  say unto you, and more than a prophet.
  10 For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I
  send my messenger before thy face, which shall
  prepare thy way before thee.
  11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of
  women there hath not risen a greater than John the
  Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the
  kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
  12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now
  the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the
  violent take it by force.
  13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until
  John.
  14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which
  was for to come.
  15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
  16 But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is
  like unto children sitting in the markets, and
  calling unto their fellows,
  17 And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have
  not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not
  lamented.
  18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and
  they say, He hath a devil.
  19 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they
  say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a
  friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is
  justified of her children.
  20 Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most
  of his mighty works were done, because they repented
  not:
  21 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida!
  for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had
  been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented
  long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
  22 But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for
  Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.
  23 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto
  heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the
  mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been
  done in Sodom, it would have remained until 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 thank
  thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because
  thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent,
  and hast revealed them unto babes.
  26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy
  sight.
  27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and
  no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither
  knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to
  whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
  28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy
  laden, and I will give you rest.
  29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am
  meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto
  your souls.
  30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

...to Matthew chapter 12
