Luke 19:36–44

³⁶As He was going, they were spreading their coats on the road.

³⁷As soon as He was approaching, near the descent of ^athe Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to ^bpraise God ¹joyfully with a loud voice for all the ²miracles which they had seen,

³⁸shouting:

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

Peace in heaven and ^cglory in the highest!”

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

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

⁴¹When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and ^awept over it,

⁴²saying, “If you had known 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 recognize ^bthe time of your visitation.”
