17 “ ‘We played the pipe for you,

and you did not dance;

we sang a dirge,

and you did not mourn.’

17 And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.

17 ‘We played wedding songs,

and you didn’t dance,

so we played funeral songs,

and you didn’t mourn.’

17 and saying:

‘We played the flute for you,

And you did not dance;

We mourned to you,

And you did not lament.’

17 ‘We played music for you, but you did not dance;

we sang a sad song, but you did not cry.’

17 and say, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance; we wailed, and ye did not mourn.

17 say, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced: we have mourned to you, and ye have not wailed.

17 ‘We played music for you, 

but you didn’t dance. 

We sang a funeral song, 

but you didn’t show any sadness.’ 

17 We played the flute for you,

but you didn’t dance;

we sang a lament,

but you didn’t mourn!

17 ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance;

we wailed, and you did not mourn.’

17 saying,

‘We played the flute for you and you did not dance;

we sang a lament and you did not mourn.’

17 “ ‘We played the flute for you.

But you didn’t dance.

We sang a funeral song.

But you didn’t become sad.’

17 and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’
