Luke 19:36–44

³⁶And as He was going, they were spreading their garments on the road.

³⁷Now as soon as He was approaching, near the descent of ^athe Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to ^bpraise God, rejoicing with a loud voice for all the ¹miracles which they had seen,

³⁸saying,

“^aBlessed is the ^bKing who comes in the name of the ¹Lord.

Peace in heaven and ^cglory in the highest!”

^39aAnd some of the Pharisees ¹in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”

⁴⁰But Jesus answered and said, “I tell you, if these were silent, ^athe stones will cry out!”

Lament over Jerusalem

⁴¹And as He approached Jerusalem and saw the city, He ^acried over it,

⁴²saying, “If you knew in this day, even you, the things which make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your eyes.

⁴³“For the days will come upon you ¹when your enemies will ^athrow up a ²barricade against you, and ^bsurround you and hem you in on every side,

⁴⁴and they will level you to the ground and your children within you, and ^athey will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not ¹recognize ^bthe time of your visitation.”
