21Woe vnto thee Chorazin, woe vnto thee Bethsaida: for if the mightie workes which were done in you, had bene done in Tyre and Sidon, they would haue repented long agoe in sackcloth and ashes. 22But I say vnto you, It shall bee more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of iudgement, then for you. 23And thou Capernaum, which art exalted vnto heauen, shalt be brought downe to hell: For if the mighty works which haue beene done in thee, had bin done in Sodome, it would haue remained vntil this day. 24But I say vnto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, in þe day of iudgment, then for thee. 25¶ At that time Iesus answered, and said, I thanke thee, O Father, Lord of heauen and earth, because thou hast hid these things frō the wise & prudent, & hast reueiled them vnto babes.
