Luke 19:39-48

39 ¹And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples."

40 He answered, "I tell you, if these were silent, ²the very stones would cry out."

Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem

41 ³And when he drew near and saw the city, ⁴he wept over it,

42 saying, ⁵"Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now ⁶they are hidden from your eyes.

43 For ⁷the days will come upon you, when your enemies ⁸will set up a barricade around you and ⁹surround you and hem you in on every side

44 ¹⁰and tear you down to the ground, you and your children within you. And ¹¹they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know ¹²the time of your ¹³visitation."

Jesus Cleanses the Temple

45 ¹⁴And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold,

46 saying to them, "It is written, ¹⁵'My house shall be a house of prayer,' but ¹⁶you have made it a den of robbers."

47 ¹⁷And he was teaching daily in the temple. ¹⁸The chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people were seeking to destroy him,

48 but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people were hanging on his words.
