New Testament

Luke 19:38-48 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

38. shouting: "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord; Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"

39. Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples."

40. But Jesus answered, "I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out!"

41. When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and wept over it,

42. saying, "If you had known in this day, even you, the things which make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your eyes.

43. For the days will come upon you when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, and surround you and hem you in on every side,

44. and they will level you to the ground and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation."

45. Jesus entered the temple and began to drive out those who were selling,

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

47. And He was teaching daily in the temple; but the chief priests and the scribes and the leading men among the people were trying to destroy Him,

48. and they could not find anything that they might do, for all the people were hanging on to every word He said.
