Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem

41 As he drew near to Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it, 42 saying, “If only yoʋ had [fn]known, especially on this yoʋr day, what would bring about [fn]yoʋr peace! But now it is hidden from yoʋr eyes. 43 For the days will come upon yoʋ when yoʋr enemies build a barricade around yoʋ and encircle yoʋ, hemming yoʋ in on every side. 44 They will raze yoʋ to the ground, and yoʋr children within yoʋ. They will not leave in yoʋ one stone upon another, because yoʋ did not recognize the time of yoʋr visitation.”
