Luke 7:31
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
“To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?
In context
29 All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.
30 But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.
31 “To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?
32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not weep.’
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
