Luke 13:25-35

25 ¹When once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ²'Lord, open to us,' then he will answer you, ³'I do not know where you come from.'

26 Then you will begin to say, ⁴'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'

27 But he will say, 'I tell you, ⁵I do not know where you come from. ⁶Depart from me, all you workers of evil!'

28 ⁷In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see ⁸Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but ⁹you yourselves cast out.

29 And ¹⁰people will come from east and west, and from north and south, and ¹¹recline at table in the kingdom of God.

30 And behold, ¹²some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last."

Lament over Jerusalem

31 At that very hour some Pharisees came and said to him, "Get away from ¹³here, for ¹⁴Herod wants to kill you."

32 And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day ¹⁵I finish my course.

33 Nevertheless, ¹⁶I ¹⁷must go on my way today and tomorrow and the day following, for it cannot be that ¹⁸a prophet should perish away from Jerusalem.'

34 ¹⁹O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that ²⁰kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! ²¹How often would I have ²²gathered ²³your children together ²⁴as a hen gathers her brood ²⁵under her wings, and ²⁶you would not!

35 Behold, ²⁷your house is forsaken. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, ²⁸'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!'"
