Jesus expressed his sorrow about what would happen to Jerusalem.

Matthew 23:37-39

37 “O people of Jerusalem [MTY, APO], you killed the prophets who lived long ago, and you killed others whom God sent to you. You killed them by throwing stones at them [DOU]! Many times I wanted to gather you together to protect you, like a hen gathers her young chicks under her wings [MET]. But you did not want me to do that. 38 So listen to this: Your city [SYN] will soon become an uninhabited place. 39 Keep this in mind: You will see me again only when I return, and you say about me, ‘God is truly pleased with this man who comes with God’s authority [MTY].’ ”
