The Lament Over Jerusalem

33 Yet I must walk today and tomorrow and the day following. For it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem. 34 Jerusalem! Jerusalem! the one killing the prophets, and stoning those having been sent to her; how often I desired to gather your children in the way a hen gathers her brood under the wings, and you did not desire it. 35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And truly I say to you, You will not see Me until it come when you say, Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.
