Matthew 11:13-18 Common English Bible (CEB)

13. All the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John came.

14. If you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come.

15. Let the person who has ears, hear.

16. "To what will I compare this generation? It is like a child sitting in the marketplaces calling out to others,

17. ‘We played the flute for you and you didn’t dance. We sang a funeral song and you didn’t mourn.’

18. For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
