12 From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
14 If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
16 "But what will I compare this generation to? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
17 and say, `We played the flute for you, and you didn`t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn`t lament.`
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, `He has a demon.`
