In that very hour there came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Get thee out, and go hence: for Herod would fain kill thee.
And he said unto them, Go and say to that fox, Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third (day) I am perfected.
Nevertheless I must go on my way to-day and to-morrow and the (day) following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen (gathereth) her own brood under her wings, and ye would not!
Behold, your house is left unto you (desolate): and I say unto you, ye shall not see me, until ye shall say, Blessed (is) he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
