Luke 19:36–44

³⁶And as He went, many spread their clothes on the road.

³⁷Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to ^yrejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, ³⁸saying:

^z“ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’

^aPeace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

³⁹And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”

⁴⁰But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, ^bthe stones would immediately cry out.”

⁴¹Now as He drew near, He saw the city and ^cwept over it, ⁴²saying, “If you had known, even you, especially in this ^dyour day, the things that ^emake for your ^fpeace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. ⁴³For days will come upon you when your enemies will ^gbuild an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, ^44hand level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and ⁱthey will not leave in you one stone upon another, ^jbecause you did not know the time of your visitation.”
