39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”(A)

40 “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”(B)

41 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it(C) 42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes. 43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.(D) 44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls.(E) They will not leave one stone on another,(F) because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming(G) to you.”

39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,

44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem

41 Now as He drew near, He saw the city and (B)wept over it, 42 saying, “If you had known, even you, especially in this (C)your day, the things that (D)make for your (E)peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. 43 For days will come upon you when your enemies will (F)build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, 44 (G)and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and (H)they will not leave in you one stone upon another, (I)because you did not know the time of your visitation.”
