37 (A)“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how many times I yearned to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her young under her wings, but you were unwilling!(B) 38 (C)Behold, your house will be abandoned, desolate. 39 (D)I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
