Luke 23:27-29
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
27 And there accompanied [Jesus] a great multitude of the people, [including] women who bewailed and lamented Him.
28 But Jesus, turning toward them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29 For behold, the days are coming during which they will say, Blessed (happy, fortunate, and [a]to be envied) are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the breasts that have never nursed [babies]!
