Grieving over Jerusalem
37 “(A)Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who (B)kills the prophets and stones those who have been sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, (C)the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were unwilling. 38 Behold, (D)your house is being left to you desolate! 39 For I say to you, from now on you will not see Me until you say, ‘(E)Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord!’”
