John sends his disciples to Jesus. |
Jesus' testimony concerning John. |
ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελον μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, |
ὃς κατασκευάσει τὴν ὁδόν σου ἔμπροσθεν σου. |
The perverse judgment of the people concerning the Son. |
ἠυλήσαμεν ὑμῖν καὶ οὐκ ὠρχήσασθε, |
ἐθρηνήσαμεν καὶ οὐκ ἐκόψασθε. |
Jesus upbraids Korazin, Bethsaida, and Capernaum; |
and praising his Father's wisdom in revealing the Gospel to the simple, |
he calls to him those who are weary and burdened. |
