Luke 13:1-5
New King James Version
Repent or Perish
13 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had [a]mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”

34 (A)Therefore, indeed, I send you prophets, wise men, and scribes: (B)some of them you will kill and crucify, and (C)some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city, 35 (D)that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, (E)from the blood of righteous Abel to (F)the blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. 36 Assuredly, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.
Jesus Laments over Jerusalem(G)
37 (H)“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets (I)and stones those who are sent to her! How often (J)I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks (K)under her wings, but you were not willing! 38 See! Your house is left to you desolate; 39 for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, (L)‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’ ”
