The Friend Of Sinners

¹⁷ ‘“We played the pipe for you,
    and you did not dance;
we sang a dirge,
    and you did not mourn.”

¹⁸ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, “He has a demon.” ¹⁹ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, “Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.” But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.’
