Luke 19:36-44

As Jesus rode toward Jerusalem, others spread their coats on the road before him. As he was coming close to Jerusalem, on the way down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of followers began joyfully shouting praise to God for all the miracles they had seen. They said, “God bless the king who comes in the name of the Lord! There is peace in heaven and glory to God!” Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, tell your followers not to say these things.” But Jesus answered, “I tell you, if my followers didn’t say these things, then the stones would cry out.” As Jesus came near Jerusalem, he saw the city and cried for it, saying, “I wish you knew today what would bring you peace. But now it is hidden from you. The time is coming when your enemies will build a wall around you and will hold you in on all sides. They will destroy you and all your people, and not one stone will be left on another. All this will happen because you did not recognize the time when God came to save you.”
