Grieving over Jerusalem

37 (A)Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who (B)kills the prophets and stones those who have been sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, (C)the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were unwilling. 38 Behold, (D)your house is being left to you desolate! 39 For I say to you, from now on you will not see Me until you say, ‘(E)Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord!’”

But He responded and said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Truly I say to you, (H)not one stone here will be left upon another, which will not be torn down.”
