Matthew 11:16
Douay-Rheims
But whereunto shall I esteem this generation to be like? It is like to children sitting in the market place.
Jerome
They say therefore, We have flayed music to you, and ye have not danced; i. e. We have called on you to work good works to our songs, and ye would not. We have lamented and called you to repentance, and this ye would not, rejecting both preaching, as well of exhortation to virtue, as of repentance for sin.
