37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; |
38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. |
39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. |
40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out. |
41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, |
42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. |
43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, |
44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. |
