Jesus Beheld the City of Jerusalem and Wept over It
|
 |
 |
41 As he approached
Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it 42
and said, "If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring
you peace -- but now it is hidden from your eyes. 43
The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an
embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.
44 They will dash you to the ground, you and
the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another,
because you did not recognize the time of God's coming to you." Luke 19:41-44
