Lament over Jerusalem
31 Just at that time some Pharisees approached, saying to Him, “Leave and go from here, for (A)Herod wants to kill You.” 32 And He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and on the third day I [a](B)finish.’ 33 Nevertheless (C)I must journey on today and tomorrow and the next day, for it is not possible that a (D)prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem. 34 (E)O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, (F)just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you did not want it! 35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate, and I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, ‘(G)Blessed is He who comes in the name of the [b]Lord!’”

Jesus’s Lamentation over Jerusalem
34 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem,(G) who kills the prophets and stones(H) those who are sent to her.(I) How often I wanted to gather your children(J) together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings,(K) but you were not willing!(L) 35 See, your house is abandoned to you.(M) I tell you, you will not see me until the time comes when[b] you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord’!”[c](N)
