¹⁶ But ^(A)they mocked the messengers of God, ^(B)despised His words, and ^(C)scoffed at His prophets, until the ^(D)wrath of the Lord arose against His people, till there was no remedy.

Jesus Laments over Jerusalem^(A)

^37 (B)“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets ^(C)and stones those who are sent to her! How often ^(D)I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks ^(E)under her wings, but you were not willing!

^52 (A)Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of ^(B)the Just One, of whom you now have become the betrayers and murderers,

^15 (A)who killed both the Lord Jesus and ^(B)their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they do not please God ^(C)and are ^[a]contrary to all men,

^35 (A)Women received their dead raised to life again.

Others were ^(B)tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. ³⁶ Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and ^(C)of chains and imprisonment. ^37 (D)They were stoned, they were sawn in two, ^[a]were tempted, were slain with the sword. ^(E)They wandered about ^(F)in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented—

^10 (A)My brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and ^(B)patience.
