Matthew 21:32

32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax collectors and prostitutes did believe. Although ^{▼▼ Here δέ (de) has not been translated.} you saw this, you did not later change your minds ^{▼▼ The word translated change your minds is the same verb used in v. 29 (there translated had a change of heart). Jesus is making an obvious comparison here, in which the religious leaders are viewed as the disobedient son.} and believe him.
