 \v 37 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you! How often did I long to gather your children together, just as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!

+\v 38 See, your house is left to you desolate.
 \v 39 For I say to you, You will not see me from now on, until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
