Matthew 23:37-39
1599 Geneva Bible
37 (A)[a]Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the Prophets, and stonest them which are sent to thee, how often would I have [b]gathered thy children together, as the hen gathered her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
38 Behold, your habitation shall be left unto you desolate.
39 For I say unto you, ye shall not see me henceforth till that ye say, Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord.
